   Sammanfattning : Purpose: To confront the statement that gadolinium contrast media (Gd-CM) are less nephrotoxic than iodine contrast media (I-CM) when used in x-ray angiographic and computed tomographic (CT) examinations. Methods: I) For CT measurements (mean density in Hounsfield numbers) 20-mL syringes filled with I- and Gd-CM at 0.01, 0.02, 0. LÄS MER

3. 7. Fast Methods for Vascular Segmentation Based on Approximate Skeleton Detection

   Författare :Kristína Lidayová; Hans Frimmel; Ewert Bengtsson; Örjan Smedby; Alejandro F. Frangi; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; medical image analysis; automatic skeleton extraction; vascular segmentation; coverage segmentation; convolutional neural network classifier; CT angiography; Computerized Image Processing; Datoriserad bildbehandling;

   Sammanfattning : Modern medical imaging techniques have revolutionized health care over the last decades, providing clinicians with high-resolution 3D images of the inside of the patient's body without the need for invasive procedures. Detailed images of the vascular anatomy can be captured by angiography, providing a valuable source of information when deciding whether a vascular intervention is needed, for planning treatment, and for analyzing the success of therapy.

4. 8. MRI with MR Angiography in Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

   Författare :Lena Engellau; Malmö Diagnostisk radiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; medical instrumentation; Klinisk fysiologi; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering; tomography; radiology; Clinical physics; Contrast media complications; Cost analysis; MR velocity mapping; Artefacts; MR imaging safety; MR angiography; MR imaging; Endovascular repair; Stent-graft; aortic; Aneurysm;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to evaluate MRI with contrast enhanced MR angiography (MRI/CE MRA) as imaging method before and after endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). A 1.5 T scanner was used for all examinations. In this prospective study 26 consecutive patients were included. LÄS MER

5. 9. Volume imaging of the abdomen : three-dimensional visualisation of tubular structures in the body with CT and MRI

   Författare :Anders Persson; Örjan Smedby; Håkan Ahlström; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : The overwhelming amount of image-based information in modem medicine makes it crucial to develop methods to handle and analyze images and make them comprehensible for users. The aim of this thesis was to study the radiological practice of three-dimensional (3D) visualization of tubular structures in the body with CT and MRI. LÄS MER

7. 10. Optimising pulmonary gas exchange in anaesthetised horses : unravelling the role of pulsed inhaled nitric oxide using computed tomography angiography of the lung

   Författare :Adam Auckburally; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Mortality rates in healthy, anaesthetised horses are higher than in most other species. Hypotension, hypoxaemia and hypoventilation are implicated as risk factors, which develop due to the combined effects of general anaesthesia and recumbency. Hypoxaemia is largely a consequence of ventilation perfusion (V̇ /Q̇ ) mismatch. LÄS MER
