16. Studies of Nuclear Fuel by Means of Nuclear Spectroscopic Methods
Sammanfattning : The increasing demand for characterization of nuclear fuel, both from an operator and authority point of view, motivates the development of new experimental and, preferable, non-destructive methods. In this thesis, some methods based on nuclear spectroscopic techniques are presented. LÄS MER
17. Myocardial Perfusion and Function: Comparative assessment by ECG, SPECT and MRI
Sammanfattning : Evaluation of myocardial perfusion and function is important in management of patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease. This thesis focuses on the use of common diagnostic methods, myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (MPS) and electrocardiography (ECG), to enhance and validate the diagnostic information.

18. Tomographic ventilation-perfusion lung scintigraphy in cardiopulmonary disease
Sammanfattning : Respiration relies, among other things, on the balance between regional ventilation and perfusion in the lungs. There are many cardiopulmonary diseases, such as pulmonary embolism (PE), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and left heart failure (LHF), which can affect respiration negatively. LÄS MER
19. Development of radioligands for emission tomography imaging of dopamine D1 and benzodiazepine receptors
Sammanfattning : Brain imaging of dopamine and benzodiazepine (BZ) receptors in vivo is of central interest in neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizoprenia, Huntington's disease and epilepsy. The objective was to develop new radioligands for emission tomography of dopamine D1 and BZ receptors. LÄS MER
20. The Effect of CO2-Pneumoperitoneum on Ventilation Perfusion Distribution of the Lung
Sammanfattning : Laparoscopic operations are a common and popular way for abdominal procedures. They are usually performed by insufflation of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the abdominal cavity. However, insufflation of CO2 may interfere with cardiac and circulatory as well as respiratory functions. The CO2-pneumoperitoneum (PP) may cause hypercarbia and acidosis. LÄS MER
