  1. 1. Polymer gel dosimetry - Using MRI-readout, simplified relatively non-toxic mixing procedure tested on FLASH

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Maria Blomstedt; [2022]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background: One of the polymer gel dosimeters available today is the N-isopropylamide (NIPAM) polymer gel dosimeter which has a less toxic monomer compared to other polymer gels and the advantage of being able to be manufactured under normal oxygen levels. Polymer gel dosimeters in general are advantageous independent dosimeters to use for verification of new radiation treatment techniques due to its favorable qualities such as very high resolution, 3D coverage, tissue equivalence and independence of energy and incident direction of the radiation beam.

  2. 2. Initial steps toward MRI-based treatment planning for external radiotherapy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Sara Thörnqvist; [2009]
    Keywords : Strålterapi; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : "Introduction; The aim of this study was to examine the possibilities for MRI-based radiotherapy treatment planning. The work included evaluation of geometric image distortions in MR-images, investigations of how segmentation of bone could be performed from images acquired with the ultra short time of echo (UTE) pulse sequence and assessment of dosimetric differences between treatment planning based on these images as compared to the original CT-based treatment plans.

    Abstract : Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Dagens täta städer skapar många utmaningar för miljön. Hårda ytor gör att risken för översvämningar ökar och antropogenisk värme bidrar till att staden blir varmare än sin omgivning. Med hjälp av takvegetation, s k gröna tak, kan man minska dessa problem. READ MORE
