  1. 1. Separation of Water and Fat Signal in Magnetic Resonance Imaging : Advances in Methods Based on Chemical Shift

    Författare :Johan Berglund; Joel Kullberg; Lars Johansson; Håkan Ahlström; Zhi-Pei Liang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Magnetic resonance imaging; digital image reconstruction; chemical shift imaging; water and fat separation; Dixon method; fat suppression; quantitative MRI; whole-body MRI; fatty acid composition; fat unsaturation; triglycerides; adipose tissue; liver fat; T2* mapping; Radiology; Radiologi; Radiology; Radiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most important diagnostic tools of modern healthcare. The signal in medical MRI predominantly originates from water and fat molecules. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Quantification of Fat Content and Fatty Acid Composition Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Författare :Pernilla Peterson; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MRI; fat quantification; water fat imaging; chemical shift; skeletal muscle; fat reference; bipolar gradient; fatty acid composition; relaxation;

    Sammanfattning : In obesity and several other disease scenarios, the measurement of fat accumulation in various organs and tissues has become a sought-after technique in clinical diagnostics and research. Especially, quantitative and non-invasive techniques which also provide images of accumulated fat throughout the body would be valuable. LÄS MER

    Författare :Erika Rapp [Nordin]; Åsa Öström; Inga-Britt Gustafsson; Judith Annett; Inger M. Jonsson; Mai-Lis Hellénius; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Abdominal fat; Basic tastes; Bitterness; BMI; Coronary heart disease; Dietary fat content; Eating context; Food; HDL-cholesterol; Health promotion; Intervention; Meal; Perception; Preference; PROP; Beska; BMI; Bukfetma; Fetthalt; Grundsmaker; HDL-kolesterol; Hjärtinfarkt; Hälsa; Intervention; Mat; Måltidsmiljö; Preferens; PROP; Sensitivitet; Culinary Arts and Meal Science; Måltidskunskap; Måltidskunskap; Culinary Arts and Meal Science;

    Sammanfattning : Det övergripande syftet var att undersöka mat- och måltidsrelaterade faktorer som bidragande orsak till övervikt och hjärt-kärlsjukdom.I en sensorisk studie jämfördes individer som insjuknat i hjärtinfarkt med en frisk kontroll-grupp med avseende på preferens för mat med hög respektive låg fetthalt, smakkänslighet för grundsmakerna (surt, beskt, salt, sött, umami och metalliskt) samt det beska ämnet 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP).

  7. 5. Dietary Intake, Fatty Acid Biomarkers, and Abdominal Obesity : Population-Based Observational Studies

    Författare :Zayed Alsharari; Ulf Risérus; Matti Marklund; Per Sjögren; Tommy Cederholm; Emily Sonestedt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :abdominal obesity; fatty acid biomarker; dietary intake; Kostvetenskap; Food; Nutrition and Dietetics;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate the associations between fatty acid (FA) biomarkers, carbohydrate intake, and abdominal obesity (AO) and related anthropometric measures in a population-based cohort of men and women in Stockholm County. The overall hypothesis was that dietary fat quality assessed by serum and adipose tissue FA composition, and dietary intake of especially carbohydrates is associated with AO. LÄS MER
