  1. 1. Correlation between Surface and Tumour Motion in Lung Cancer - including Deep Learning Perspectives

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Caisa Kjellström; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis was to retrospectively investigate correlation between surface and tumour motion in lung cancer patients, alongside deep learning applications of the results. Additional correlations such as age, tumour volume and anatomical placement of the tumour were also investigated. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Characterization of Radiomics Features Extracted from Images Generated by the 0.35 T Scanner of an Integrated MRI-Linac

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Rebecka Ericsson Szecsenyi; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: In an era of personalized oncology where the aim is to give every patient the right treatment at the right time an area of promising research is emerging called radiomics, or quantitative image analysis. The main underlying hypothesis is that pathophysiological information can be found in image texture not visible to the bare eye that can improve diagnosis, treatment adaption or be linked to a certain clinical outcome.

  3. 3. Clinical implementation of 4D Guidance during lung cancer treatment with radiation therapy

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Författare :Jeanne Maret; [2018]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy is one of the main treatment for lung cancer. This technique relies on killing the tumor cells by focusing electron or photon beam in the area. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Robustness of the voluntary breath-hold approach for the treatment of early stage lung cancer with spot scanned proton therapy

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Jenny Dueck; [2013]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Intra- and interfractional variations in anatomy can cause unplanned substantial alterations of the dose distribution of the target in proton therapy. Motion management methods might be used in order to minimize anatomical variations. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Prototype Development of an A-Mode Ultrasound Based Intrafraction Motion Management System

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Författare :Abebe Hailu; Fredrik Lundqvist; [2013]
    Nyckelord :Intrafraction motion management; A-mode ultrasound; stereotactic body radiation therapy; ultrasonic distance measurement; embedded system;

    Sammanfattning : Owing to the steep dose fall-off curves of high precision and accuracy radiation therapy (RT) modalities such as stereotactic body RT (SBRT), treatment plans with extraordinarily small margins to organs at risk (OARs), such as the spinal cord, has been made possible. With this development, patient movements during treatment, i.e. LÄS MER
