  1. 1. Biomedical and atmospheric applications of optical spectroscopy in scattering media

    Author : Johannes Swartling; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Turbid media; Tissue optics; Tissue optical properties; Multiple scattering; Radiative transfer; Diffusion equation; Monte Carlo method; Time-resolved spectroscopy; Atomic and molecular physics; Integrating spheres; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2002:Swartling;

    Abstract : Spectroscopic analysis of scattering media is difficult because the effective path length of the light is non-trivial to predict when photons are scattered many times. The main area of research for such conditions is biological tissues, which scatter light because of variations of the refractive index on the cellular level. READ MORE

  2. 2. Viral gastrointestinal infections in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients

    Author : Lisa Swartling; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Gastrointestinal symptoms, and elevated liver enzymes, are common after HSCT, often due to drug toxicity, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or infections. It is essential to distinguish between GVHD and infection, since both conditions may progress to lethal disease, but require opposite strategies for the immunosuppressive treatment. READ MORE

  3. 3. Direction of Arrival Estimation and Localization of Multiple Speech Sources in Enclosed Environments

    Author : Mikael Swartling; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Beamforming; Detection and classification; Speech enhancement; Source localization;

    Abstract : Speech communication is gaining in popularity in many different contexts as technology evolves. With the introduction of mobile electronic devices such as cell phones and laptops, and fixed electronic devices such as video and teleconferencing systems, more people are communicating which leads to an increasing demand for new services and better speech quality.

  4. 4. Aspects on Minimally Invasive Surgery for Rectal Tumours

    Author : Torbjörn Swartling; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; minimally invasive surgery; rectal neoplasm; transanal endoscopic microsurgery; inflammatory response; magnetic resonance imaging; endosonography; treatment outcome; local neoplasm recurrence;

    Abstract : Background: Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) and laparoscopic rectal resection are minimally invasive methods of surgery for rectal tumours. One aim of this thesis was to analyse the inflammatory response after minimally invasive surgery compared with open resection. READ MORE

  5. 5. Learning and Production Improvements

    Author : Dag Swartling; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The overall purpose of the thesis is to explore the role of learning in production improvement work.The research questions are:How does learning in production relate to investments in new machinery for existing processes and new processes? How is learning in production related to using production improvement methods?The answer to the first question is that regardless if the investment is in machinery for existing processes or new processes, learning plays an important role, both in the specification phase and in the production phase.
