  1. 6. Synchrotron X-ray Tomography Study of Bone-implant Integration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Ornella Lohéac; [2021]
    Keywords : Bone-implant; Digital volume correlation; Micro-computed tomography; PEEK; Synchrotron; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Implant loosening is a recurring problem in the field of orthopedics, typically resulting in a physical and financial burden for the patient. Proper integration of orthopedic implants within host bones is a fundamental requirement for the successful function and limited risk of failure of implants which, in-vivo, must support various loading conditions.

  3. 7. The effect of vessel holes on fracture behaviour in the femoral neck of the human femur

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Sofia Rokkones; Karin Odin; [2020]
    Keywords : image analysis; femur; FE model; biomechanics; CT image; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hip fractures are widely spread in today's society and affect a person's quality of life. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that results in more fragile bones and an increased risk of bone fractures, including hip fractures. A method proposed for assessing the fracture risk is finite element (FE) models of the femur. READ MORE

  4. 8. A micro-CT investigation of density changes in pressboard due to compression

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanik

    Author : Johan Stjärnesund; [2018]
    Keywords : Micro computed tomography; μCT; pressboard; density; densification;

    Abstract : Pressboard, a high-density cellulose-based product, is used both as load bearing structures and dielectric insulation in oil-filled power transformers. During transformer operation, mechanical forces and vibrations are applied on the material. READ MORE

  5. 9. Adaptive Backprojection : Developing a simple reconstruction algorithm

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Avdelningen för elektronikkonstruktion

    Author : Ante Vernersson; [2018]
    Keywords : CT; Computed Tomography; Backprojection; Reconstruction; 3D; Adaptive Backprojection; Algorithm;

    Abstract : This group project aims to investigate the possibility ofconstructing a prototype micro-CT-scanner, hopefullyfurthering the advancement in the field of small CT-scanners,with the ultimate goal to provide a structure useable in anambulance, to scan and send images to the hospital, so thattreatment can commence directly upon arrival.This report deals with the matter of reconstructing the takenimages to construct a three-dimensional model of thescanned object.

  6. 10. Design, 3D Bioprinting, and Testing of Otic Prosthesis

    University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/Tekniska Högskolan

    Author : Dan Rogozea; [2018]
    Keywords : Bioprinting; Ossicles;

    Abstract : The middle ear is a complex organ with multiple functions. It is prone to accidental, genetic, excessive noise exposure, or age-related damage. Its main role is to convey and amplify the mechanical vibrations of the tympanic membrane to the acoustic nerve through three connected small bones, the ossicles; malleus, incus, and stapes. READ MORE
