Popular Abstract in Swedish Tolkning av medicinska bilder kan vara svår och påverkar i hög grad det fortsatta handläggandet av patienten. De viktigaste förutsättningarna för ett bra tolkningsresultat är förutom läkarens erfarenhet, som byggs upp genom att tolka många bilder, även kvaliteten på bilderna. Under det senaste decenniet har bilddiagnostiken utvecklats snabbt. Digitaliseringen av bilden Correct interpretation of medical imaging is based upon the interpreter’s experience and image quality. Depending on the report given the clinician decides how to use the result of the study. For many years a large number of image technologies including myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) have been acquired in digital format and the development of the imaging modalities are progressing rapidly

This article considers the challenges faced by digital evidence specialists when collaborating with other specialists and agencies in other jurisdictions when investigating cyber crime. The opportunities, operational environment and modus operandi of a cyber criminal are considered, with a view to developing the skills and procedural support that investigators might usefully consider in order to r

In this thesis, the nutritional regulation and clinical significance of selenoprotein P (SeP) in human plasma of healthy and diseased subjects was investigated. For the analysis of SeP, a radioimmunoassay was developed using polyclonal antibodies. The epitope recognized by the antibodies was apparently stable after storage of plasma in the frozen state for years. In the studies included, the coeff

The paper is based on an inventory of crofts and cottages that was made in the parish of Länghem in the southern part of the province of Västergötland, Sweden at the end of the 1950ies and the beginning of the 1960ies. The parish of Länghem has both manors (the medieval Torpa and Hofsnäs and the 17th century Sällerås) and independent villages. The inventory was made quite traditionally. We tried t

At the turn of the nineteenth century, most men wore suits. One easily gets the impression that all these men look more or less identical; the suits seem to resemble uniforms. Furthermore, compared to the women’s clothing of the period, the suit seems restrained and even drab in its shape and colour. The dissertation takes up this point and examines the claim that all men look alike in a suit. The

One of the key questions in todays galaxy research is the formation and evolution of disk galaxies such as the Milky Way. Using observations in the intermediate band Stromgren uvby filter system we have investigated how both density and metallicity varies within the Galactic disks in order to learn more about the Galaxy and its past. As a first step we test the abilities of the Stromgren photomet

In acts of memorialisation, the objects that ”help” people get into contact with (their memory of) the deceased – like gravestones, personal collections of the deceased’s paraphernalia, objects placed at sites of sudden death, etc. – are often strictly regulated, differently in different cultures. At ”wrong” spots in the urban environment for instance, memorial places can thus be regarded as highl

Protoplanets of super-Earth size may get trapped in convergence zones for planetary migration and form gas giants there. These growing planets undergo accretion heating, which triggers a hot-Trail effect that can reverse migration directions, increase planetary eccentricities, and prevent resonant captures of migrating planets. In this work, we study populations of embryos that are accreting pebbl

Sandvik SRP AB in Svedala has recently made a big investment in a completely new production facility that is called Greenfield. The facility will be ready for production in 2013 and will have eleven top modern axle lathe- and vertical boring milling machines. The machines will process casting to parts for the stone crushers Sandvik SRP in Svedala manufacture. The goal with Greenfield is to get wor

Rättsläget kring implementeringen av IPRED-direktivet har varit osäkert och omtvistat. Förhållandet mellan upphovsrätt och integritet är invecklat och skyddet för de ekonomiska rättigheterna har varit i behov av förbättring samtidigt som att säkrandet av tryggheten för personlig information i ett växande informationssamhälle blivit allt större. Genom domen i ePhone-målet har det fastslagits att dThe legal position regarding the implementation of the IPRED directive has been uncertain and controversial. The relationship between copyright and privacy is complex and protection of the economic rights has been in need of improvement, while the same thing can be argue for safeguarding of the security of personal information in the growing information society. The ruling in the Ephone case has

As a result of the increasing gang criminality, the lethal firearm violence has enhanced since the 1990’s in Sweden which is a development that has in several ways resulted in a social problem. For example are the perpetrator and thereby gang members getting younger, the connection between gang and lethal firearm violence has eventuated in a lower number of solved cases, which is partly due to the

For some time Sweden has avoided the involvement of therapy dogs in health and social care. In spite of other countries who’s been using dogs for several years, Sweden has been sceptical of the alleged positive influence that dogs supposedly can have on humans. In countries like England, Austria and the US you can find educations on university level for dogs to be used when treating humans. Up unt

The aspiration of this study has been to examine and evaluate the artificial intelligence tool “TalkToAlba” (Alba for short) as an aid for caregivers in mental health in their treatment of patients. Alba is a multifaceted tool that can conduct clinical interviews with patients, provide AI-based suggestions of diagnoses, keep journal entries and provide a plan for cognitive behavioral therapy. One

The aim of this thesis is to by studies and analyses of the past, in this case an older real-catalog system used during the period 1930-1960 at the Folklore archive in Lund, learn and create understandings for the system used at the archive from 1991 to today, which is a text database system. By this create understandings of how an organisations history can affect and influence the present, and wi

The use of electronic devices which radiate high power electromagnetic waves has seen a significant increase in the last 20 years. These radiated signals heavily effects electronic devices close to strong radio frequency (RF) or microwave (MW) transmitters . Mobile phones are a good example among electronic devices which cause signal interference in hearing instruments (HI). Changing the design o

The aim of this thesis is to investigate how the news media can challenge a social construction when it covers an event related to a taboo. The main question guiding this thesis is how the news media discourses about the ‘tampon tax´ in France can challenge the menstrual taboo. Every society is constituted of taboos which aim at maintaining order and hierarchies. However, these taboos oppress the

Background Managing risk has become a crucial challenge for supply chain managers. In a complex supply chain, there are relations that have to be managed from the supplier’s supplier to the customer’s customer, and there is a lot of room for unforeseen challenges. The need to capture risk has for a long time been high, but due to the complexity of modern supply chains, uncertain developments are h

I Sverige råder allmän vittnesplikt vilket innebär att ett kallat vittne har en skyldighet att vittna. Ett vittne kan således inte undvika vittnesplikten så länge någon av undantagsreglerna inte är tillämpliga. Att vara rädd för att vittna på grund av att vittnet blivit utsatt för hot eller våld är inte en giltig anledning till att inte vittna. För de fall ett kallat vittne inte fullgör sin vittneIn Sweden, there is a general duty to testify, which means that a called witness has an obligation to testify. A witness cannot avoid the obligation to testify as long as any of the exception rules are not applicable. To be afraid to testify because the witness has been exposed to threats or violence is not a valid reason not to testify. In cases where a called witness does not satisfactorily fulf
