1. 1. Diffusion in Bone Tissue

   Författare :Gustav Lindberg; Hållfasthetslära; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bone growth; diffusion; stress enhanced; finite element method; steady-state; periosteal membrane; diffusion in bovine bone; diffusion experiment; Conductivity measurement; Fick’s law; Fourier series; Kalman filter; transient solution;

   Sammanfattning : In order to prevent or modify the processes of bone degeneration the modeling and remodeling of bone tissue must be better understood. In this thesis it is assumed that the primary condition leading to bone growth is a change of the chemical environment caused by transport of matter resulting from stress driven diffusion. LÄS MER

3. 2. On the determination of diffusion coefficients in bone

   Författare :Abdallah Shokry; Hållfasthetslära; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kalman filter; Mathematical model; Spatially dependent diffusion; Diffusion in bone; Diffusion coefficient; Conductivity; Elastic modulus; Porous materials;

   Sammanfattning : Diffusion in bone is needed for bone remodeling and bone healing. Understanding the phenomenon is often important for comprehension bone diseases. Mathematical modeling of the diffusion processes is a required prerequisite in the study of this important physical process in living bone tissue. LÄS MER

4. 3. On the Growth of Bone through Stress Driven Diffusion and Bone Generation Processes

   Författare :Gustav Lindberg; Hållfasthetslära; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bone growth; Osteogenesis; Diffusion in bone; stress enhanced diffusion; Ginzburg-Landau; phase-field; diffusion experiment; Conductivity; Kalman filter; finite element method; Fourier series; Fick’s law; Osteology;

   Sammanfattning : In order to prevent or modify bone degeneration due to rest or due to diseases such as osteopenia and osteoporosis, the modeling and remodeling of bone tissue must be better understood. In this thesis it is assumed that the primary condition leading to bone growth is a change of the chemical environment caused by transport of matter resulting from stress driven diffusion. LÄS MER

5. 4. Whole-Body MRI including Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in Oncology

   Författare :Firas Mosavi; Håkan Ahlström; Lennart Blomqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Diffusion-weighted imaging; Whole-body MRI; NaF PET CT; FDG PE CT; apparent diffusion coefficient;

   Sammanfattning : Cancer is one of the major causes of worldwide mortality. Imaging plays a vital role in the staging, follow-up, and evaluation of therapeutic response in cancer patients. Whole-body (WB) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), as a non-ionizing imaging technique, is a promising procedure to assess tumor spreading in a single examination. LÄS MER

7. 5. Evaluation of Functionalized Biopolymers as a Step Toward Targeted Therapy of Osteoporosis

   Författare :Sujit Kootala; Jöns Hilborn; Peter Thomsen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Osteoporosis; Bone regeneration; Biomaterials; Hyaluronic acid; Bisphosphonates; Osteoclasts; Osteoblasts; Growth factors; Kemi med inriktning mot polymerkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Polymer Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

   Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis focuses on the development of strategies and smart bioactive materials for the treatment of osteoporosis. High and low molecular weight soluble hyaluronic acid-bisphosphonate (HA-BP) derivatives were investigated for their ability to inhibit osteoclasts. LÄS MER
