  1. 1. Acoustic Droplet Vaporization : An Assessment of How Ultrasound Wave Parameters Influence the Vaporization Efficiency

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Sara Öquist; [2020]
    Keywords : Acoustic Droplet Vaporization; Verasonics; Ultrasound; Vaporization Efficiency; Phase-change Contrast Agents;

    Abstract : Acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV) is a process in which a phase shift of a liquified droplet into a gaseous microbubble, is triggered using an ultrasonic wave. In contrast to utilizing conventional contrast agents in ultrasound, the phase change contrast agents used in ADV can extravasate into tumor tissue, and they offer a greater circulatory lifespan, thereby increasing the potential applications in which they can be utilized.

  3. 2. Acoustic Droplet Vaporization of Perfluorocarbon Filled Microdroplets

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

    Author : Didrik Nimander; [2019]
    Keywords : Medical engineering; Acoustic Droplet Vaporization; Ultrasound; Contrast agent;

    Abstract : The use of peruorocarbon lled droplets for use as Phase Changing Contrast Agents (PCCAs) is a promosing eld. These capsules also have potential to be used for mediated drug delivery. The phase change, which has given the capsules their name, is the process when the capsule transforms from a droplet into a bubble. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of Ultrasound Pulse Sequences for Acoustic Droplet Vaporization

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

    Author : Isabelle Gouwy; [2019]
    Keywords : Ultrasound; Ultrasound contrast agents; Phase-change contrast agents; Acoustic droplet vaporization; Verasonics;

    Abstract : Ultrasound-mediated drug delivery has been proposed as a safe and non-invasive method to achieve localized drug release. Drug-loaded microbubbles are injected in the vascular system and ultrasound waves are then used to localize and burst the microbubbles at a specific targeted area. READ MORE

  5. 4. Autonomous networks without the need for infrastructure : A study of zero configuration mesh networks in Linux environments

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för datavetenskap (DV)

    Author : Jimmy Månsson; Anton Roskvist; Filip Roskvist; [2014]
    Keywords : Wireless mesh networks; Autonomous networks; B.A.T.M.A.N-Adv; Zero configuration;

    Abstract : Autonomous Mesh Networks potentially allows for cheaper networks, of use for impoverished areas with poor infrastructure and little interest from service providers for expansion. The subject of wireless mesh networks is interesting for several reasons. READ MORE

  6. 5. Plasmacytos (Aleutian disease)hos vild mink i Sverige

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Mia Tjernström; [2010]
    Keywords : Mink; Mustela vison; Plasmacytos; ADV; Aleutian disease;

    Abstract : Plasmacytos är en kronisk, persistent och progressiv viros med hög dödlighet och allvarliga reproduktionsproblem som ofta kallas Aleutian disease (AD). Sjukdomen drabbar i huvudsak mink och är ett stort problem på minkfarmer, men kan även drabba vilda mård- och hunddjur. READ MORE
