  1. 1. SPECT Imaging using Pinhole Collimation : System Design and Simulation Studies for Pre-Clinical and Clinical Imaging

    Författare :Mikael Peterson; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pinhole SPECT tomography; Nuclear medicine imaging; Monte Carlo-based image reconstruction;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of this dissertation is the use of pinhole collimation in Nuclear Medicine. A pinhole is a single aperture in an opaque material that is placed between the detector and source of interest, and photons must pass through the hole to reach the detector. The choices of pinhole parameters, e.g. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Early detection is vital to successfully treating breast cancer, and mammography screening is the most efficient and wide-spread method to reach this goal. Imaging low-contrast targets, while minimizing the radiation exposure to a large population is, however, a major challenge. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Diagnostic criteria and dose limiting approaches for image modalities in odontology

    Författare :Daniel Benchimol; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Objectives: Technical innovations in radiography enable the development of new approaches to reduce the dose to patients. The aim of this thesis was to explore dose optimization approaches for the most frequently used radiographic modalities in dentistry. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, electron transport in mesoscopic semiconductor nanostructures, in particular so-called electron billiards or quantum dots, is studied. The thesis can be divided into two areas: the linear response regime of transport, and the nonlinear response regime of transport. LÄS MER
