  1. 1. Improving the experimental setup for ultrasound-optical tomography imaging

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Ibtisam Dahir Ahmed; [2023]
    Keywords : Ultrasound-optical tomography UOT ; thulium-doped lithium niobate;

    Abstract : According to Bröstcancer förbundet, mammography is not efficient at detecting tumors in dense breast tissue or diagnosing breast cancer at its early stages. Ultrasound-optical tomography (UOT) is an imaging technique in development and has the potential for deep-tissue imaging. READ MORE

  3. 2. Anisotropic Muscle Phantoms for Shear Wave Elastography Assessment of the Levator Ani Muscle Properties

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Bleona Koxha; Melissa Jova Martinez; [2023]
    Keywords : pelvic floor disorder; levator ani muscle; shear wave elastography; phantom; anisotropy; polyvinyl alcohol; bäckenbottenbesvär; levator ani muskel; shear wave elastografi; fantom; anisotropi; polyvinylalkohol;

    Abstract : Pelvic floor disorder is an emerging research area and is highlighted in many pelvic floor studies. Assessment methods for this type of injury are lacking and new methods for prevention and diagnosis are needed. Pelvic floor disorders are common among women and can lead to suffering for the patient. READ MORE

  4. 3. Optimising microfluidic preparation of lipid sponge phase nanoparticles for biomolecule encapsulation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Owais Khalil; [2023]
    Keywords : Sponge phase; lipid nanoparticles; microfluidics; SAXS; cryo-TEM; DLS; chemical engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Drug delivery with lipid nanoparticles, especially sponge phase lipid nanoparticles (LNP), has been well studied because of its ability for drug encapsulation and transferring the drug through the cell membrane. The sponge phase LNP formulation could be affected by the molecular structure of the lipid, the temperature, pH, dilution, the buffer, and the addition of a stabiliser. READ MORE

  5. 4. Dataset based on volunteer campaign to optimize novel sensor for muscle quality

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fasta tillståndets elektronik

    Author : Sophia Holmqvist; [2022]
    Keywords : sarcopenia; microwaves; medical imaging;

    Abstract : This project had its primary focus on running a campaign to recruit healthy volunteers for a test study involving the utilization of a microwave sensor and ultrasound measurements. The key system used was the Muscle Analyzer System (MAS), which consisted of the Bandstop Filter Sensor (BFS), a microwave sensor transmitting microwaves into the selected medium through transmission and a FieldFox Vector Network Analyzer which was used to transmit these microwaves.

  6. 5. Ultrasound Imaging Velocimetry using Polyvinyl Alcohol Shelled Microbubbles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Ida Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : Ultrasound imaging velocimetry; ultrasound contrast agents; polyvinyl alcohol; microbubbles; echo particle image velocimetry; Ultrasound imaging velocimetry; ultraljudskontrastmedel; polyvinylalkohol; mikrobubblor; echo particle image velocimetry;

    Abstract : Current research within the field of ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs) aims at developing capsules which are not only acoustically active, but also have a chemically modifiable surface. This enables use in new areas, including targeted drug delivery and theranostics. READ MORE
