  1. 1. Exploring alternative surfactants to replace PEG within lipid nanoparticles

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Elina Edidovica; [2024]
    Keywords : Lipid nanoparticle; polyethelyne glycol PEG ; alpha-tomatine; N-hexadecyl beta d-maltoside HDM ; DOPC; DPPC; cholesterol; film hydration; stability study; DLS; Cryo-TEM; SAXS; pharmaceutical formulation; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Over the past decade an increasing amount of studies has demonstrated that PEGylation not only precipitates reductions in drug delivery efficiency but also triggers the immune system to produce antibodies, specifically anti-PEG antibodies. The objective of my thesis is to explore alternative surfactants that could viably replace PEG within lipid nanoparticles. READ MORE

  3. 2. Deep Learning-based Regularizers for Cone Beam Computed Tomography Reconstruction

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Sabina Syed; Josefin Stenberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Adversarial Convex Regularization; Computer Vision; Cone Beam Computed Tomography; Convolutional Neural Networks; Deep Learning; Image Reconstruction; Adversarial Convex Regularization; Bildrekonstruktion; Datorseende; Djupinlärning; Faltningsnätverk; Volymtomografi;

    Abstract : Cone Beam Computed Tomography is a technology to visualize the 3D interior anatomy of a patient. It is important for image-guided radiation therapy in cancer treatment. During a scan, iterative methods are often used for the image reconstruction step. READ MORE

  4. 3. Improving Usability of Bioinformatics Software with an Integrated Web Tool System for Cancer Diagnostics

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

    Author : Solbritt Gateman; [2023]
    Keywords : Web development; bioinformatics pipelines; precision medicine; user-centred design; interface design;

    Abstract : Precision cancer medicine is an area of research that involves complex bioinformatics software for the clinical analysis pipelines that sequencing data is passed through. A research team at Karolinska Institutet (KI) is running clinical trials to test new methods of precision cancer medicine and is working on creating a new web application that will be integrated with their two existing applications to aid bioinformaticians in their work of running pipelines and producing clinical reports for the hospitals.

  5. 4. " Optimization of Margins and Plan Robustness for Proton Therapy of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma"

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Filip Hörberger; [2022]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Purpose/Background: Utilizing proton therapy (PT) for treatment of Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) has demonstrated favorable features, particularly a reduced dose to organs at risk (OAR) in comparison with photon radiotherapy. However, there is a coherent complexity with PT including its uncertainties, such as range-uncertainties and set-up variations as protons are highly sensitive to tissue density variations within the beam-path.

  6. 5. Simulation of Microwave Heating of Healthy and Cancerous Human Tissue With Gold Nanoparticles

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

    Author : Hampus Carlens; Mika Söderström; [2022]
    Keywords : Gold nanoparticle GNP ; Electrophoretic resonance; Dispersive permittivity; Cancer treatment; Waveguide; Radiotherapy; Graded material.;

    Abstract : With a great need for new and better cancer treatments, microwaves and gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are increasingly being suggested to be used in radiotherapy. In thisreport, the authors present an investigation of how human tissue,both malignant and healthy, behaves under microwave radiation. READ MORE
