  2. 1. Advanced clinical MRI for better outcome in epilepsy surgery. Focusing on fMRI and prediction of verbal memory decline

    Author : Maria Strandberg; Lund Neurologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 3T MRI; surface coils; epilepsy surgery; fMRI; TLE; lateralization index; MTL; verbal encoding;

    Abstract : Abstract Aim: The aim of the thesis was to evaluate the use of advanced MRI technology to improve results of epilepsy surgery, with focus on language and memory functions. Methods: In paper I, 25 patients with drug-resistant epilepsy were retrospectively included in the study for having been referred to high resolution 3T MRI with and without surface coils. READ MORE

  4. 2. Radio Frequency Systems for NMR Imaging: Coil Development and Studies of Non-Thermal Biological Effects

    Author : Lars Malmgren; Lunds universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; anechoic chamber; TEM transmission cells; FDTD; circularly polarized electromagnetic fields; reduced coupling; noise matching; matching networks; low noise amplifiers; upper thoracic spine; surface coils; Nuclear magnetic resonance; magnetic resonance imaging; non-thermal biological effects; blood-brain barrier; Electronics; Elektronik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns both design and optimization of NMR imaging systems and studies on non-thermal biological effects of electromagnetic fields. These two research fields are linked together by the fact that humans are subject to static and pulsed magnetic fields as well as to magnetic radio frequency fields (RF) during an NMR imaging investigation.

  5. 3. Coil Design and Related Studies for the Fusion-Fission Reactor Concept SFLM Hybrid

    Author : Anders Hagnestål; Olov Ågren; Vladimir Moiseenko; Ladislav Bardos; Jan Scheffel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fusion; Fission; Hybrid reactor; Actinides; Mirror Machine; Quadrupolar mirror; Coils; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : A fusion-fission (hybrid) reactor is a combination of a fusion device and a subcritical fission reactor, where the fusion device acts as a neutron source and the power is mainly produced in the fission core. Hybrid reactors may be suitable for transmutation of transuranic isotopes in the spent nuclear fuel, due to the safety margin on criticality imposed by the subcritical fission core. READ MORE

  6. 4. An inductive gap measurement method for square butt joints

    Author : Edvard Svenman; Anna-Karin Christiansson; Anna Runnemalm; Johan Carlsson; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Eddy current; Seam tracking; Measurement; Laser beam welding; gap geometry; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : A recent method in aero engine production is to fabricate components from smaller pieces, rather than machining them from large castings. This has made laser beam welding popular, offering high precision with low heat input and distortion, but also high productivity. READ MORE

  7. 5. Inductive measurement of narrow gaps for high precision welding of square butt joints
