  1. 1. Förekommer förändringar i vätskebalansen hos hästar med EMS vid korttidsbehandling med en SGLT2-hämmare?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Agnes Alm; [2024]
    Keywords : IInsulindysreglering ID ; kanagliflozin; hematokrit; totalprotein; osmolalitet;

    Abstract : 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. 2. Light-Sheet Imaging of Collagen in Renal Tissue in Aqueous and Anhydrous Conditions

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Felicia Näsman; [2023]
    Keywords : Kidney disease; Renal fibrosis; Light-sheet Microscopy; Collagen; Fast Green; Kronisk njursjukdom; Njurfibros; ”Light sheet”-mikroskopi; Kollagen; Fast Green;

    Abstract : Chronic kidney disease is a progressive kidney disease that affects approximately one tenth of the world population. In almost all cases of progressive, end-stage kidney disease, fibrosis is seen. Renal fibrosis is a condition of the kidneys in which collagens and other proteins accumulate in the extracellular matrix of the kidneys. READ MORE

  3. 3. Feasibility of quantitative 99mTc-DPD scintigraphy SPECT/CT for assessing the burden of ATTR cardiac amyloidosis

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Radiofysik

    Author : Sajad Kadhim Khalaf; [2023]
    Keywords : QSPECT; Amyloidosis; ATTR; LVMI; Recovery Coefficient; SUV; Calibration;

    Abstract : 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

  4. 4. Påverkar graden av insulindysreglering effekten av behandling med kanagliflozin hos hästar med ekvint metabolt syndrom?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Ida Ivarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ekvint metabolt syndrom EMS ; Insulindysreglering ID ; Hyperinsulinemi; Kanagliflozin;

    Abstract : 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

  5. 5. Establishment of a deep learning algorithm for dosimetry of radiopharmaceuticals

    University essay from

    Author : Dennis Lipnicevic; [2022-01-13]
    Keywords : Medical physics; automated segmentation; dosimetry; kidney; nuclear medicine dosimetry; deep learning; convolutional neural network;

    Abstract : 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.
