  1. 16. High-­dose rate intraluminal brachytherapy for oesophageal cancer using MR imaging: A clinical implementation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen; Lunds universitet/Medicinsk strålningsfysik, Lund

    Author : Rrezarta Reci; [2015]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate a new methodology for brachytherapy of oesophageal cancer using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for treatment planning. That includes finding a suitable oesophageal applicator that can be visualised on MR images and to create dose and fraction schedule that should be used brachytherapy treatments. READ MORE

  2. 17. Radiochromic Film Dosimetry in Kilovoltage X-­‐ray Beams: A Pre-­‐ Investigation for In Vitro Studies of Bystander Effects

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen; Lunds universitet/Medicinsk strålningsfysik, Lund

    Author : Zeinab Hossein; [2015]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Purpose Intensity modulation of radiation is one of several important conditions to evaluate for full understanding of how cells involved in the bystander effect influence each other when cells are exposed to radiation at low and high dose rates. The aim of this study was to develop and apply a useful and practical dosimetric method for measurement of the absorbed dose to cell cultures exposed to intensity modulated radiation in investigations of the bystander effects.

  3. 18. Indirect detection of myelin water by T2-relaxation during the RF pulse

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen; Lunds universitet/Medicinsk strålningsfysik, Lund

    Author : Yosef Al-Abasse; [2015]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Introduction: The axonal myelin sheath is the main cause of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast between gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) in the brain. It encloses a small pool of myelin water (MW) with a short T2 of about 15 ms. READ MORE

  4. 19. Assessment of radionuclide content in waste barrels using the Canberra In-Situ Object Counting System (ISOCS)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen; Lunds universitet/Medicinsk strålningsfysik, Lund

    Author : Marcus Persson; [2015]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : In order to store radioactive waste its contents need to be known. Determining radioactive waste can be achieved by different means. The most common method is using a detector to measure the gamma photons produced by the radionuclides in the waste. READ MORE

  5. 20. MRI only radiotherapy using synthetic CT images: Dosimetric accuracy and patient positioning strategies in an MRI only workflow

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen; Lunds universitet/Medicinsk strålningsfysik, Lund

    Author : Emilia Persson; [2015]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background and purpose: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) only radiotherapy has, due to superior soft tissue contrast of MRI and the possible reduction of systematic uncertainties, grown into a promising technique. The purpose of this work is to investigate parts of an MRI only workflow with synthetic computed tomography (sCT) images generated from MRI. READ MORE
