1. Förekommer förändringar i vätskebalansen hos hästar med EMS vid korttidsbehandling med en SGLT2-hämmare?
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical SciencesAbstract : Ekvint metabolt syndrom (EMS) är ett sjukdomskomplex innefattande flertalet riskfaktorer för att utveckla endokrinologisk fång. Främst innebär EMS insulindysreglering (ID), vilket yttrar sig som hyperinsulinemi (onormalt höga koncentrationer av insulin i blodet). READ MORE

2. Feasibility of quantitative 99mTc-DPD scintigraphy SPECT/CT for assessing the burden of ATTR cardiac amyloidosis
University essay from Umeå universitet/RadiofysikAbstract : Background: Amyloid transthyretin (ATTR) cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of misfolded proteins, known as amyloid fibrils, in the myocardium. Quantitative Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (QSPECT) utilizing 99mTc-DPD scintigraphy has the potential to assess ATTR-suspected cardiac amyloidosis (CA). READ MORE

3. Påverkar graden av insulindysreglering effekten av behandling med kanagliflozin hos hästar med ekvint metabolt syndrom?
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical SciencesAbstract : Ekvint metabolt syndrom (EMS) kan förklaras som ett antal riskfaktorer som bidrar till utvecklingen av fång hos hästar. Insulindysreglering (ID) och obesitas med eller utan regional fettansättning utgör viktiga riskfaktorer som ingår i syndromet. Hästar med ID får onormalt höga insulinkoncentrationer i plasma, kallat hyperinsulinemi. READ MORE

4. Establishment of a deep learning algorithm for dosimetry of radiopharmaceuticals
University essay fromAbstract : Purpose: The aim of this study was to introduce a volumetric convolutional neural network for segmentation of the kidneys in SPECT images and to apply it in the dosimetry of radiopharmaceuticals of this organ, in order to decrease segmentation time and to standardize the segmentation of the kidneys. Method: Three networks were trained using two network architectures and a total of 216 retrospectively collected images from patients that underwent imaging procedures at Sahlgrenska University Hospital between 2009 and 2018.

5. Feasibility of single time point dosimetry during 177Lu-PSMA-617 treatments of prostate cancer
University essay from Lunds universitet/SjukhusfysikerutbildningenAbstract : Introduction: Standard dosimetry methods for radionuclide therapies re- quire imaging at multiple time points post injection. An alternative method has been presented in the literature that uses previously acquired pharma- cokinetic data to create so-called dose factors. READ MORE
