  4. 3. Hypoxic Target Volume Determination in PET/CT Imaging : The Impact of Deformable Image Registration

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

    Author : Viktor Rosenberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Positron emission tomography; image registration; hypoxic tumour volume; dose escalation; tumour control probability;

    Abstract : Using a tailored dose distribution for personalized radiotherapy with the help of positron emission tomography (PET) might give an edge for successful tumour elimination. One of the main determinants for tumour radioresistance in several solid tumours has been investigated as hypoxia, including head and neck cancer (HNC). READ MORE

  5. 4. Inhibited surface-thiols in Geobacter sulfurreducens : Mercury uptake and methylation rates

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Andreas Granström; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Due to daily human (anthropogenic) industrial activity, a lot of elemental mercury (Hg0) has been released to the atmosphere. The mercury can then spread globally, since mercury has the ability to remain atmospheric for up to a year. When mercury deposits, it can end up in anaerobic environments such as sediments and soil.

  6. 5. The Effects of Longer Stage Durations During an Incremental Graded Exercise Test on the Finnish Lactate Threshold Concept

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Julius von Martens; [2021]
    Keywords : biomedicine; graded exercise test; lactate; threshold; spirometry; treadmill;

    Abstract : Background: The end-product of glycolysis is lactate, which is subsequently oxidised to produce more energy. With increasing intensity, the rate of lactate production exceeds the capacity to eliminate lactate, leading to an exponential accumulation of blood lactate. READ MORE
