  1. 21. Optimization of b-value Acquisition and Parameter Estimation of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Measurements

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Ivan Rashid; [2023]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Radiotherapy is commonly used for cancer treatment, given to approximately half of all cancer patients in Sweden. Despite its widespread usage, there is currently no non-invasive and reliable imaging method that can identify regions of radiation resistance. READ MORE

  3. 22. A Comparison of Convolutional Neural Networks used in Melanoma Detection : With transfer learning on the PAD-UFES-20 and ISIC datasets

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

    Author : Abdi Gobena; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine learning; Neural networks; Skin cancer; PAD-UFES-20; ISIC; Maskininlärning; Neuronnätverk; Hudcancer; PAD-UFES-20; ISIC;

    Abstract : Skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer, of which melanoma is the most lethal. Early detection is critical to long term survival rates. The use of machine learning to detect melanoma shows promising results in detecting malignant forms. READ MORE

  4. 23. Exploring a unique pocket in Galectin-8N by the synthesis of D-galactoside-based benzimidazole inhibitors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Sid Bartold; [2023]
    Keywords : organic chemistry; synthesis; gal; gal-8; gal-8N; galectin; galectin-8; galectin-8N; inhibitor; drug development; benzimidazole; galactoside; carbohydrate; carbohydrate chemistry; Suzuki-coupling; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Galectins are a family of glycan-binding proteins where galectin-8 is a part of the subgroup known as tandem-repeat type galectins. Galectin-8 is composed of two homologous CRDs, one N- and one C-terminal CRD. As it stands now, galectin-8N has been found to bind to a larger number of glycans than galectin-8C. READ MORE

  5. 24. Correlation between Surface and Tumour Motion in Lung Cancer - including Deep Learning Perspectives

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Caisa Kjellström; [2023]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis was to retrospectively investigate correlation between surface and tumour motion in lung cancer patients, alongside deep learning applications of the results. Additional correlations such as age, tumour volume and anatomical placement of the tumour were also investigated. READ MORE
