1. 1. Developing a protocol for 3D-printable bioink from decellularised porcine tissue

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

   Author : Vendela Sandin; [2024]
   Keywords : Scaffold; Extracellular matrix; ECM; Bioink; Bioprinting; Collagen; Pharmaceutical technology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : T-cell administration via a scaffold is a promising tool for treatment of inoperable solid tumours. Traditional scaffold materials lack the complexity of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that cells normally grow in. An alternative is to instead use decellularised ECM (dECM) from biological tissue to create the scaffold. READ MORE

3. 2. The functional anatomy of the crocodilian heart

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biologi

   Author : Jennifer Karlsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Anatomy; Cardiac right-to-left shunt; Cog-teeth-like valves; Crocodilian heart; Foramen of Panizza; Hemodynamics; Left aorta;

   Abstract : Crocodiles are ectothermic, intermittent breathing reptiles with low metabolic rates. Additionally, they are diving animals that can stay submerged for long periods, which poses special demands on their cardiovascular system. The crocodilian heart is four-chambered with completely separated ventricles, making it unique among other reptiles. READ MORE

4. 3. Exploring Deep Learning Frameworks for Multiclass Segmentation of 4D Cardiac Computed Tomography

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för hälsa, medicin och vård

   Author : Norman Janurberg; Christian Luksitch; [2021]
   Keywords : Computed Tomography; Multiclass Segmentation; Image Segmentation; 4D; Deep Learning; MONAI; Unet; Cropping network; Multiaxis Segmentation;

   Abstract : By combining computed tomography data with computational fluid dynamics, the cardiac hemodynamics of a patient can be assessed for diagnosis and treatment of cardiac disease. The advantage of computed tomography over other medical imaging modalities is its capability of producing detailed high resolution images containing geometric measurements relevant to the simulation of cardiac blood flow.

5. 4. Implementation of an automated,personalized model of the cardiovascularsystem using 4D Flow MRI

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för kardiovaskulär medicin

   Author : Camilla Almquist; [2019]
   Keywords : 4D Flow MRI; Master thesis; Image processing; Heart; Blood flow;

   Abstract : A personalized cardiovascular lumped parameter model of the left-sided heart and thesystemic circulation has been developed by the cardiovascular medicine research groupat Linköping University. It provides information about hemodynamics, some of whichcould otherwise only have been retrieved by invasive measurements. READ MORE

6. 5. Influence of inflow conditions on simulations of arterial blood flow

   University essay from KTH/Mekanik

   Author : Marcus Strimell Flodkvist; [2018]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The blood is responsible for the oxygenation of the body and to carry nutrients to the different parts of the body and waste products away from the major organs like the liver, kidneys but also the walls of the arteries. Blood is composed of red blood cells that are on average 45% of the total volume, the rest of the blood is made up of blood plasma platelets, white blood cells, minerals and nutrients. READ MORE
