  1. 1. Anatomical segmentation of the human brain: comparative assessment of two automatic methods

    University essay from

    Author : Carl von Dorrien; [2023-08-22]
    Keywords : Medical physics; MAPER; FreeSurfer; FastSurfer; Automatic brain segmentation; MRI; Deep Neural Network; Brain;

    Abstract : Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a robust and versatile imaging modality and an integral component of a lot of studies, especially when performing quantitative analysis. MRI is the preferred method of imaging the brain because of its excellent soft tissue contrast. READ MORE

  3. 2. Characterization of Carotid Atherosclerotic Stenosis on Photon-Counting Computed Tomography

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : My Celander; [2023]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Introduction and aim Atherosclerotic stenosis located at the carotid bifurcation accounts for 10% − 20% of all Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA) and ischemic strokes, which occurs when Atherosclerotic stenosis, or so-called plaque, ruptures. The current method to evaluate carotid atherosclerotic stenosis is to measure the degree of stenosis. READ MORE
