21. Three-dimensional assessment of cardiac function; When right is wrong
Sammanfattning : Assessment of the right side of the heart is important in patients with heart disease; especially in patient with elevated pressure in the lung circulation. Decreased right ventricular function and elevated pressure in the right atrium are of poor prognostic value. LÄS MER
22. Signal processing applied to acoustic distance estimation and sound classification
Sammanfattning : The thesis treats some signal processing applications to retrieval of information from acoustic measurements. In the distance estimation applications (parts AI, A2, B and C) an acoustic signal propagates through a physical system and is modified according to some system parameter. LÄS MER
23. Clinical aspects of arterial wall stiffness with a focus on abdominal aortic aneurysm
Sammanfattning : Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the most common type of age-related diseases and can affect health in several ways. As a result of increased life expectancy around the world, the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is expected to increase. LÄS MER
24. Assessment of Long-Term Losses in Prestressed Concrete Structures - Application for Nuclear Reactor Containments
Sammanfattning : Most nuclear reactors, both in Sweden and worldwide, are enclosed by a prestressed concrete containment. The main purpose of the containment is to prevent any radioactive discharge to the environment in the event of a major internal accident. LÄS MER
25. The right ventricle in volume or pressure overload : Insights from novel imaging techniques
Sammanfattning : This study is inspired by the gap in knowledge regarding the timing of cardiac surgery and interventions in adult patients with congenital heart disease. There are many parameters used assessing right ventricular function; however, most of them have pitfalls. LÄS MER
