  1. 1. Radiotherapy treatment strategy for prostate cancer with lymph node involvement

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Författare :Amanda Östensson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Radiotherapy; prostate cancer; lymph node; gold fiducial marker; multiple target;

    Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy is a common and useful method for treating prostate cancer, often using gold fiducial markers in the prostate as guidance. However, when there is a high risk of lymph node involvement, the independent motion of volumes causes complications in patient positioning since there is a choice between position against the gold fiducial markers or the bone anatomy.

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality in the world. It is estimated that about 20% of males and 17% of females will suffer it at some point in their lives, while 13% of males and 9% of females will die from it [1]. Cancer is caused by abnormal cell growth which can spread through the body in a process called metastasis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Image Segmentation on Lymph Node Images using Machine Learning to improve Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistik

    Författare :Elias Ågren; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Image Segmentation; Lymph Node Images; Machine Learning; Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis; Convolutional Neural Network; U-Net; Cancer Staging; Histological Images Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : In cancer diagnosis there is a goal of having the treatment being tailored to each patient. This in order to increase efficiency and reduce side effects. Using more data on each patient can help in achieving this. One such data source is histological images on tissues, such as lymph nodes. LÄS MER
