  1. 1. Ultrasonic Methods for Quantitative Carotid Plaque Characterization

    Författare :Erik Widman; Matilda Larsson; Mark L. Palmeri; KTH; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Atherosclerosis; Cardiovascular Disease; Carotid Artery; Elasticity; ex vivo; in vivo; Phantom; Plaque; Polyvinyl Alcohol; Pulse Wave Imaging; Shear Wave Elastography; Speckle Tracking; Stroke; Ultrasound; Medical Technology; Medicinsk teknologi; Atherosclerosis;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death worldwide and improved diagnostic methods are needed for early intervention and to select the most suitable treatment for patients. Currently, carotid artery plaque vulnerability is typically determined by visually assessing ultrasound B-mode images, which is influenced by user-subjectivity. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Mosaic loss of chromosome Y : methods for detection and consequences for affected leukocytes and men

    Författare :Marcus Danielsson; Lars A. Forsberg; Ståhl Patrik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mosaic loss of chromosome Y; mLOY; somatic mosaicism; Medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : It has been known for centuries that men live shorter lives than women, but until recently, the biological mechanisms driving this sex bias has been poorly understood. Mosaic loss of chromosome Y (mLOY) refers to chromosome Y aneuploidy, a male specific and the most common somatic mutation in human blood cells. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Applications of Deep Learning in Medical Image Analysis : Grading of Prostate Cancer and Detection of Coronary Artery Disease

    Författare :Ida Arvidsson; Mathematical Imaging Group; []

    Sammanfattning : A wide range of medical examinations are using analysis of images from different types of equipment. Using artificial intelligence, the assessments could be done automatically. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Automatic Melanoma Diagnosis in Dermoscopic Imaging Base on Deep Learning System

    Författare :Yali Nie; Jan Lundgren; Mattias O'Nils; Claes Lundström; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Melanoma classification; computer vision; Deep learning; CNN;

    Sammanfattning : Melanoma is one of the deadliest forms of cancer. Unfortunately, its incidence rates have been increasing all over the world. One of the techniques used by dermatologists to diagnose melanomas is an imaging modality called dermoscopy. The skin lesion is inspected using a magnification device and a light source. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Towards more prognostic information to patients with life threatening diseases: Why, how and when?

    Författare :Lena Hoff; Medicinsk etik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prognostic information; acute leukemia; myeloma and inoperable lung cancer; ethics; values;

    Sammanfattning : Physicians’ attitudes towards disclosure to patients of cancer diagnoses have changed from non-disclosure to full disclosure. Also disclosure of prognosis are likewise said to have changed, though not to the same degree. LÄS MER
