  1. 1. A Machine Learning Approach to Skin Cancer Delineation on Photoacoustic Imaging

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Alice Fracchia; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Skin cancer; carcinoma; photoacoustic imaging; ultrasound imaging; machine learning; dimensionality reduction; sandpiles algorithm; active contour; multilayer perception MLP ; convolutional neural networks CNN ; autoencoder; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Skin cancer is a growing public health concern due to its prevalence among the population. Current clinical procedures require high invasiveness and multiple surgeries, which are responsible for patient discomfort and high medical expenses. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Validation of a 3D culture model for toxicity studies in malignant and non-cancerous cells

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för immunteknologi

    Författare :Kajsa Andreasson Dahlgren; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Dose-response; potency; in vitro; 2D model; 3D model; cancer; MEK inhibitor; trametinib; A549; LL47; Western blot; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a widespread and commonly fatal disease in constant need of new treatments. Traditionally, new pharmaceuticals have been tested in 2D models. This is not ideal, as 2D environments do not reflect the in vivo milieu of the cells. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Modeling and Evaluation of a Finite Element Cervical Spinal Cord for Injury Assessment

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Nicole Valle Olivera; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Biomechanics; Neuronics; Spinal Cord; LS-Dyna;

    Sammanfattning : Motor vehicles collisions and falls have gradually increase the risk for spinal cord injuries. An increased knowledge of the spinal behavior and its injury mechanisms can be used as preventive strategies. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Particle-Size Effects on the Enhanced Diffusion of Tracer Particles in Microswimmer Suspensions

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Fysikalisk kemi

    Författare :Andre Nüsslein; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Microswimmers; Soft Matter; Tracer Particles; Lattice-Boltzmann; Simulation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Active suspensions of microswimmers such as bacteria or microalgae are found in oceans or lakes, and within living organisms, such as the human body. These suspensions can exhibit complex flow patterns and enhanced diffusion of passive tracer particles due to the advection from the long-ranged dipolar flow fields of the swimmers. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Beyond Being Physically Active: Culturing the Ageing Body

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för etnologi

    Författare :Yuanita Budiman; Kei Nilsson; [2018]
    Nyckelord :ageing body; active ageing; exercise; social interaction; elderly; embodiment; applied cultural analysis; medical anthropology; qualitative research; ethnography; MACA; Cultural Sciences; Medicine and Health Sciences; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to investigate how physical activity and social interaction assist in generating better performance of the ageing body. A multifaceted ethnographic material was collected from January to February 2018 at a health and training centre called Gerdahallen, located in Lund, Sweden. LÄS MER
