  1. 1. Robustness Analysis of Perfusion Parameter Calculations

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

    Author : Alicia Palmér; [2024]
    Keywords : Perfusion; Medical image analysis; Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Tofts model; Functional imaging; Optimization; T1 map; Perfusion; Medicinsk bildanalys; Dynamisk kontrastförstärkt magnetisk resonanstomografibildtagning; Tofts-modell; Funktionell bildbehandling; Optimering; T1 karta;

    Abstract : Cancer is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. When given optimal treatment, however, the risk of severe illness may greatly be reduced. Determining optimal treatment in turn requires evaluation of disease progression and response to potential, previous treatment. READ MORE

  3. 2. Independent validation of a system for real-time localization of the prostate during motion tracking radiotherapy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Klara Stefansson; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Intrafractional prostate motion during external beam radiotherapy of prostate tumors has been reported as a limiting factor in accurate treatment delivery. Technology for real-time image-guided radiotherapy has been introduced for tracking and for compensating prostate motion during treatment and could allow for reduced target margins. READ MORE

  4. 3. Image-driven simulation of brain tumors using a reaction-diffusion mathematical model

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Kristos Qiqi; [2023]
    Keywords : brain tumor; cancer; mathematical model; simulation; magnetic resonance images; hjärntumör; cancer; matematisk model; simulering; magnetresonanstomografi bilder;

    Abstract : Brain tumors pose a big challenge in the field of neuro-oncology. Gliomas are the largest subgroup. Magnetic resonance imaging is a non-invasive tool for detecting and characterizing these tumors. Mathematical models, such as the reaction-diffusion equation, can be used for understanding the intricate behavior of gliomas. READ MORE

  5. 4. Image-classification for Brain Tumor using Pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network

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

    Author : Bushra Alsabbagh; [2023]
    Keywords : Brain tumor; Deep learning; Convolutional Neural Network CNN ; diagnosis; Image classification; pre-trained models; dataset; economic impact.; Cancer; Hjärntumör; Artificiell intelligens AI ; djupinlärning; konvolutionellt neuralt nätverk CNN ; Diagnostik; Bildklassificering; förtränade modeller; dataset.;

    Abstract : Brain tumor is a disease characterized by uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the brain. The brain is responsible for regulating the functions of all other organs, hence, any atypical growth of cells in the brain can have severe implications for its functions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluating image analysis techniques for ultrasound optical tomography in breast tissue

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Henrik von Friesendorff; [2023]
    Keywords : ultrasound optical tomography; Monte Carlo light simulation; image reconstruction; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the world today and early detection is crucial to minimize the mortality. ”Ultrasound optical tomography” (UOT) is a method under development for deep tissue imaging. READ MORE
