1. 1. Simulating metal ct artefacts for ground truth generation in deep learning.

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Arthur Barakat; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : CT scanning stands as one of the most employed imaging techniques used in clinical field. In the presence of metal implants in the field of view (FOV), distortions and noise appear on the 3D image leading to inaccurate bone segmentation, often required for surgery planning or implant design.

3. 2. Identification of Fibers in Micro-CT Images of Paperboard Using Deep Learning

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

   Author : David Rydgård; [2023]
   Keywords : Fiber networks; Paperboard mechanics; Deep learning; Tomography; Image analysis; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This master thesis project explores the possibility of using deep learning to segment individual fibers in three-dimensional tomography images of paperboard fiber networks. We test a method which has previously been used to segment fibers in images of glass fiber reinforced polymers. READ MORE

4. 3. Generating Synthetic CT Images Using Diffusion Models

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Salih Saleh; [2023]
   Keywords : Machine learning; artificial intelligence; generative models; diffusion models; MRI; CT; synthetic CT; radiation therapy;

   Abstract : Magnetic resonance (MR) images together with computed tomography (CT) images are used in many medical practices, such as radiation therapy. To capture those images, patients have to undergo two separate scans: one for the MR image, which involves using strong magnetic fields, and one for the CT image which involves using radiation (x-rays).

5. 4. Uncertainties in the use of synthetic CT (sCT) for daily online adaptive radiotherapy for lung cancer

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

   Author : Johansson Vivika; [2023]
   Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Background and purpose: Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) based online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) has been clinically implemented for several anatomical sites worldwide. However, random and abrupt anatomical changes with large density alterations can occur in lung patients, leading to uncertainties with synthetic computed tomography (sCT) and dose calculation.

6. 5. osimetric impact of system spe cific geometric distortion on head and neck treatment plans in MRI only based radiation therapy

   University essay from

   Author : Jesper Brovall; [2022-01-13]
   Keywords : Medical physics; Dosimetry; MRI; Radiation therapy;

   Abstract : Background/ purpose: Because of the superior soft tissue contrast, in comparison with computed tomography (CT) data, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is of high interest to include in a larger extent in the ra diation therapy (RT) process. In an MRI only workflow, the CT scan is excluded and a synthetic CT is used for treatment plan ning. READ MORE
