Even though the validity of x-ray computed tomography in the analysis of biomedical samples is nowadays undisputed, the more recent imaging techniques and more advanced instruments (such as synchrotrons) are still relatively unknown to many medical doctors that could benefit from them.The doctoral work presented in this thesis joins a collective effort from the imaging community to demonstrate pot
Social prescribing has been identified as a chance to take a holistic approach to people’s health and wellbeing, especially for people with one or more long-term conditions. Its systemic implementation was a part of the recent United Kingdom National Health Service Long Term Plan. With a lifestyle medicine focus on equipping patients in tools necessary for self-care and self-management of their li
The CoSAXS beamline at the MAX IV Laboratory is a modern multi-purpose (coherent) small-Angle X-ray scattering (CoSAXS) instrument, designed to provide intense and optionally coherent illumination at the sample position, enabling coherent imaging and speckle contrast techniques. X-ray tracing simulations used to design the beamline optics have predicted a total photon flux of 1012-1013 photons s-1
An energy curable composition comprises a photoinitiator and a polymerisable compound of formula (I): where: R<1> represents a C1 - C4 alkyl group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group; R<2> represents a group of formula -O-R<3> or a group R<4>; R<3> represents a C1 - C20 alkyl group, a C2 - C20 alkenyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, a polyalkylene oxide group or a poly(lactone group); R<4>
The present invention relates to the synthesis of a beaded and cross-linked, high loading capacity polymer for solid phase synthesis, purification of reaction mixtures, chromatographic separation procedures, and the like. The invention can thus be used for the isolation of molecular entities having an affinity for the polymer beads or a chemical entity attached thereto. The beaded polymer matrix c
This study aims to describe the challenges that faculty faced in the transition to distance education in higher education during the COVID-19 pandemic in spring 2020. The study presents the results from a nationwide questionnaire, answered by 1,963 individuals, concerning the transition among university faculty in Sweden. The results highlight the main obstacles and describe the practices in teach
Tidigare forskning har pekat på ökad instrumentalisering i regional kulturpolitik i Sverige efter Kultursamverkansmodellens införande. Denna studie visar på förändringar i Region Skånes kulturpolitiska argumentation som tvärtom innebär förstärkning av konstens och kulturens egenvärde, och vikten av utrymme för konstnärligt utvecklingsarbete. Den visar också på att Region Skåne provar nya sätt att
Recent advances in stroke treatment have provided effective tools to successfully treat ischemic stroke, but still a majority of patients are not treated due to late arrival to hospital. With modern stroke treatment, earlier arrival would greatly improve the overall treatment results. This prospective study was performed to asses the capability of bilateral accelerometers worn in bracelets 24/7 to
In this paper we present a novel algorithm for onboard radial distortion correction for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with an inertial measurement unit (IMU), that runs in real-time. This approach makes calibration procedures redundant, thus allowing for exchange of optics extemporaneously. By utilizing the IMU data, the cameras can be aligned with the gravity direction. This allows us
Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy, which is a non-invasive imaging technique, is one of the most common cardiological examinations performed today, and is used for diagnosis of coronary artery disease. Currently the analysis is performed visually by physicians, but this is both a very time consuming and a subjective approach. These are two of the motivations for why an automatic tool to support th
In this paper we consider a collection of relative pose problems which arise naturally in applications for visual indoor navigation using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). We focus on cases where additional information from an onboard IMU is available and thus provides a partial extrinsic calibration through the gravitational vector. The solvers are designed for a partially calibrated camera, for a
