1. Monte Carlo Simulations of a Clinical PET system using the GATE Software
University essay from Lunds universitet/SjukhusfysikerutbildningenAbstract : Introduction: Monte Carlo simulation is a powerful tool in research in the field of nuclear medicine imaging and there is a wide area of applications. The purpose of this work was (1) to understand the basics of the Monte Carlo simulation software Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission (GATE); (2) to create a model of Philips Gemini TF PET/CT system; (3) to run a number of simulations to compare the performance of the model to published data for this system; and (4) to further investigate how scattered radiation affects the image quality.

5. Reduction of the absorbed dose to the urinary bladder from radiopharmaceuticals -An investigation of influencing parameters
University essay from Lunds universitet/SjukhusfysikerutbildningenAbstract : Introduction: The main route of excretion of activity for most administered radiopharmaceuticals is via the urinary bladder and it is important to estimate the absorbed dose to the mucosal surface of the bladder wall, especially when radiopharmaceuticals are given for therapeutic purposes. The purpose of this thesis was to investigate how the absorbed dose varies with changes in the parameters, which control the volume in the bladder. READ MORE
