2. 1. MRI in prostate cancer : implications for target volume

   Author : Ulrika Björeland; Camilla Thellenberg-Karlsson; Tufve Nyholm; Joakim Jonsson; Lars Beckman; Taran Paulsen Hellebust; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MRI; imaging; prostate; radiotherapy; target detection; radiofysik; radiation physics;

   Abstract : Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer among men, with 10 000 new cases per year in Sweden [1]. To diagnose PCa, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used to identify and classify the disease. READ MORE

4. 2. Quality assurance for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in radiotherapy

   Author : Mary Adjeiwaah; Tufve Nyholm; Anders Garpebring; Joakim Jonsson; Sofie Ceberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; magnetic resonance imaging; MRI; radiotherapy; RT; geometric distortions; magnetic susceptibility; B0 maps; quality assurance; radiofysik; radiation physics;

   Abstract : The use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in the radiotherapy (RT) treatment planning workflow is increasing. MRI offers superior soft-tissue contrast compared to Computed Tomography (CT) and therefore improves the accuracy in target volume definitions. READ MORE

5. 3. Development and application of rule- and learning-based approaches within the scope of neuroimaging : Tensor voting, tractography and machine learning

   Author : Daniel Jörgens; Rodrigo Moreno; Örjan Smedby; Chunliang Wang; Jesper Andersson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tensor voting; tractography; deep learning; tractogram filtering; diffusion magnetic resonance imaging; tensorröstning; traktografi; djupinlärning; traktogramfiltrering; diffusions-MRT; Tillämpad medicinsk teknik; Applied Medical Technology;

   Abstract : The opportunity to non-invasively probe the structure and function of different parts of the human body makes medical imaging an indispensable tool in clinical diagnostics and related fields of research. Especially neuroscientists rely on modalities like structural or functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Computed Tomography or Positron Emission Tomography to study the human brain in vivo.

6. 4. Methods for the analysis and characterization of brain morphology from MRI images

   Author : Irene Brusini; Chunliang Wang; Örjan Smedby; Eric Westman; Lars-Olof Wahlund; Jorge Cardoso; KTH; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Brain MRI; Image Segmentation; Machine Learning; Deep Learning; Shape Analysis; Aging; Neurodegeneration; MRT av hjärnan; Bildsegmentering; Maskininlärning; Djupinlärning; Formanalys; Åldrande; Neurodegeneration; Medical Technology; Medicinsk teknologi;

   Abstract : Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an imaging modality that produces detailed images of the brain without using any ionizing radiation. From a structural MRI scan, it is possible to extract morphological properties of different brain regions, such as their volume and shape. READ MORE

7. 5. Automated Assessment of Blood Flow in the Cardiovascular System Using 4D Flow MRI

   Author : Mariana Bustamante; Tino Ebbers; Carljohan Carlhäll; Petter Dyverfeldt; Michael Markl; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MRI; 4D Flow MRI; Image Analysis; Segmentation;

   Abstract : Medical image analysis focuses on the extraction of meaningful information from medical images in order to facilitate clinical assessment, diagnostics and treatment. Image processing techniques have gradually become an essential part of the modern health care system, a consequence of the continuous technological improvements and the availability of a variety of medical imaging techniques.
