  2. 1. Algorithms for magnetic resonance imaging in radiotherapy

    Author : Jens Sjölund; Hans Knutsson; Anders Eklund; Mats Andersson; Evren Özarslan; Aasa Feragen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Radiotherapy plays an increasingly important role in cancer treatment, and medical imaging plays an increasingly important role in radiotherapy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is poised to be a major component in the development towards more effective radiotherapy treatments with fewer side effects. READ MORE

  4. 2. Points on Production : Taphonomic research on Mesolithic osseous assemblages in Sweden

    Author : Sara Gummesson; Jan Storå; Ola Magnell; Kenneth Ritchie; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Osteoarchaeological patterns; Taphonomic analysis; Osseous craft; Mesolithic; Spatial studies; arkeologi; Archaeology;

    Abstract : Osteoarchaeological materials are influenced by many consecutive factors, from human hunting strategies, consumption patterns and waste disposal to mechanical and chemical changes in bone structure and shape. Here Mesolithic osteoarchaeological patterns have been examined in relation to the production of bone and antler artefacts. READ MORE

  5. 3. Biological interface of bone graft substitute materials : experimental studies on interactions between biomaterials and bone cells

    Author : Zivko Mladenovic; Maria Ransjö; Joost D de Brujin; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Bone graft substitute materials are becoming more common as alternative therapy strategies when bone defects in patients need to be treated. The interaction between bone cells and biomaterials occur at the surface of the materials. A great deal is known about the importance of surface topography and physic-chemical properties of biomaterials. READ MORE

  6. 4. Risk factors for bone fragility and fracture in postmenopausal women

    Author : Ola Svejme; Ortopedi - klinisk och molekylär osteoporosforskning; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bone Fragility; Fracture; Osteoporosis; Bone Mineral Density BMD ; Menopause; Physical activity; Bone Strength; Bone Size; Bone Densitometry;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate risk factors for bone fragility and fractures in postmenopausal women in a long-term perspective. The study period spanned from the age of 48 to age 82 and is thus unique in its length. The studied sample was homogeneous and consisted of 390 north European women from a population-based cohort.

  7. 5. Cadmium exposure and risk of kidney effects and bone fractures : population-based studies in England and Sweden

    Author : Laura D K Thomas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal with no beneficial biological function. The dissemination of cadmium to the surface environment, by industrial and agricultural practices, has led to increased human exposure. READ MORE
