  1. 1. 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. 2. Buffer modification: A case study with polystyrene beads, DU145-, and MCF7 cell lines

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Olivia Hansson Rengbrandt; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Separation of cancer cells gives advantages in understanding the disease, guiding treatment decisions, and facilitating drug development. Overall, separation plays an important role in biological research. Acoustophoresis is a technique that utilizes acoustic waves to separate particles and cells suspended in a buffer medium.

  4. 3. Buffer optimisation for an improved cell separation using Acoustophoresis with Polystyrene particles, Jurkat, MCF-7 and DU-145 cell lines

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Lovisa Silversand; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Akustophores är rörelse av partiklar/celler under inverkan av ljud. Partikel- och cell separation är en applikation som kan utföras av akustophores. Detta är en viktig teknik eftersom den kan avslöja viktig information om sjukdomar och celler och därigenom förbättra valet av behandling inom sjukvården. READ MORE

  5. 4. STANDARDIZED ORGAN AT RISK VOLUME FOR EXTERNAL BEAM RADIATION THERAPY IN PROSTATE CANCER AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO VOLUMES DEFINED BY CLINICAL PRACTICE

    University essay from

    Author : Dang Thao; [2022-01-13]
    Keywords : Medical physics; Radiation therapy; Prostate cancer; Organs at risk;

    Abstract : Background/ Purpose: In radiation therapy (RT), the radiation dose calculated in tumours and normal tissue depends on how the volumes are defined. It is difficult to standardize how tumour volumes should be defined because their anatomical extension can differ greatly between individuals. READ MORE

  6. 5. Developing an AI based approach to histological tissue type classification

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Sanjith Bonela; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Histological tissue type classification is a profound research topic. However, most of the research in this area is confined to either to differentiate cancerous tissue from non-cancerous tissue or to classify connective, epithelial, muscleand nervous tissue rather than classifying an organ specific tissue from another.
