  1. 1. Virtual H&E Staining Using PLS Microscopy and Neural Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Sally Vizins; Hanna Råhnängen; [2024]
    Keywords : Deep learning; Virtual staining; Skin tissue; Hematoxylin Eosin; H E; Pathology; Carcinoma; Point light source illumination; Neural Networks; GANs; Generative adversarial networks; CNNs; Convolutional neural networks; Relativistic generative adversarial network; Unet; Digital microscopy; Attention-Unet; Dense-Unet; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Histopathological examination, crucial in diagnosing diseases such as cancer, traditionally relies on time- and resource-consuming, poorly standardized chemical staining for tissue visualization. This thesis presents a novel digital alternative using generative neural networks and a point light source (PLS) microscope to transform unstained skin tissue images into their stained counterparts.

  3. 2. 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

  4. 3. Cytokine capture with beads in cytotoxicity assays in microwells

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Maxime Simon; [2023]
    Keywords : Microbead; Inteferon gamma; Natural Killer cells; microwell; binding-reaction model; Mikrokula; Interferon gamma; Naturliga Mördarceller; Mikrobrunn; modell för bindningsreaktion;

    Abstract : Cytokines are small, secreted proteins that are important for cell signalling in theimmune system. Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is one of the most potent cytokines thatnatural killer (NK) cells of the innate immune system secrete with both antiviral,antibacterial, and antitumoral activity. READ MORE

  5. 4. A comparison between two computational tools estimating tumor purity using NGS data

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : My Eles; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In 2020, cancer accounted for almost 20% of all deaths in the United States. Cancer is highly individual, and individualized treatments are essential in the battle against the disease. The tumor microenvironment is complex, and the cancer genome contains mutations driving the cancer. READ MORE

  6. 5. Correlation between Surface and Tumour Motion in Lung Cancer - including Deep Learning Perspectives

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Caisa Kjellström; [2023]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis was to retrospectively investigate correlation between surface and tumour motion in lung cancer patients, alongside deep learning applications of the results. Additional correlations such as age, tumour volume and anatomical placement of the tumour were also investigated. READ MORE
