    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Linda Nyqvist; [2022]
    Keywords : ekvint metabolt syndrom; GGI; reproducerbarhet; β-cellsfunktion; häst;

    Abstract : Ekvint metabolt syndrom (EMS) kännetecknas av en samling fysiologiska förändringar som bland annat predisponerar hästar för endokrin fång. Centralt i begreppet är insulindysreglering, som beskriver störningar i insulinutsöndringen, så som hyperinsulinemi och insulinresistens. READ MORE

  3. 7. Environmental radiation measurements at Barsebäck nuclear power plant during the decommissioning phase

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Patrik Dahlström; [2022]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background and aim: The Barsebäck nuclear power plant (NPP) units ceased operations in 1999 and 2005. Now the NPP is in the phase of decommissioning, which is a complicated process that will take many years to complete. Radiological characterization of the surrounding area is a part of the decommissioning process. READ MORE

  4. 8. EVALUATION OF RADIATION DOSES USING CONE BEAM COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY IN ENDOVASCULAR AORTIC REPAIR AND SCOLIOSIS PROCEDURES

    University essay from

    Author : Louise Strandberg; [2021-04-06]
    Keywords : Medical physics; Cone beam CT; CT; EVAR; scoliosis; radiation dose; effective dose;

    Abstract : Purpose: The study includes the two areas, vascular surgery and orthopedics, and focuses on endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) and scoliosis procedures. EVAR procedures contribute to a high radiation dose to the patient and for scoliosis procedures, it is often young girls that are undergoing surgery. READ MORE

    Author : Majid Khosamadi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Fluoroscopy is a common imaging technique which uses X-ray to derive a real time imaging of patient anatomy to determine diagnosis and positioning of patients for interventional procedures. It is therefore important that the fluoroscopy systems maintain their performance. READ MORE

  6. 10. Impact of MLC shape smoothing on VMAT plan complexity and agreement between planned and delivered dose

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Linnéa Strandell; [2020]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background/Purpose: The aperture shape controller (ASC) was introduced in the Eclipse treatment planning system to reduce plan complexity by counteracting irregular multileaf collimator (MLC) shapes. This should lead to decreased difference between the planned and measured dose distribution. READ MORE
