  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. Systematic Multi-Parametric Analysis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Flow Cytometry Drug Screens using Flowty

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Augusta Jensen; [2023]
    Keywords : Acute myeloid leukemia; AML; cellular subpopulations; data analysis; precision medicine; Flowty; applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease, making it difficult to treat. The standard treatment is intensive chemotherapy and has not changed in 40 years. However, recently new drugs and as less intensive treatment regimens have been approved in the US and in Europe. However. READ MORE

  5. 4. Fibropapillomatosis in Green Sea Turtles in Kenya: : Prevalence of Chelonid Herpesvirus 5 in Tumor and Non-Tumor tissue

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Adam A. Ibrahim; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction: In 2012, approximately 15 % of human cancer cases were attributable to infectious agents worldwide. Fibropapillomatosis is a marine turtle disease characterized by growth of tumors on the shell, skin, eyes, oral cavity and/or viscera of the animals. READ MORE

  6. 5. The impact of pruning Convolutional Neural Networks when classifying skin cancer

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gustaf Larsson; Marcus Odin; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Over the past few years, there have been multiple reports showcasing how Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) can be used to classify if skin lesions are cancerous or non-cancerous. However, a limitation of CNNs is the large number of parameters resulting in high computation times. READ MORE
