This master thesis work comprises 20 academic credits (20 weeks) and was carried out in a time period beginning autumn 2004 ending early 2005 at the department of Industrial Management and Logistics under the division of Production Management at Lund Institute of Technology (LTH) in cooperation with IdeonCenter AB. The problem being investigated was how to measure the development of the new techno

Abstract This report is written in cooperation with Arjo Hospital Equipment AB. The purpose of it is to propose and suggest ways to improve the flow of information between Arjo and its suppliers. There are many aspects to this problem and Arjo constantly works with issues concerning this through evaluations and assessments. These circumstances are the actual background for this master thesis. As a

Idag behandlas de flesta patienter som diagnostiserats med gliom, en otäck hjärntumör, med fotoner producerade i en linjäraccelerator på någon av landets strålbehandlingskliniker. Tumören växer inuti hjärnan på ett mycket aggressivt sätt, vilket gör den nästan omöjlig att bota. Det normala är att strålningen kombineras med cellgifter och kirurgi för att ge patienten så lång tid som är möjligt, tilIncreased accuracy in patient dosimetry in BNCT is needed. This need for more accurate individual patient dose estimations initiated this project at the Swedish BNCT facility at Studsvik. One possible way to achieve this is to use an HPGe detector. This project involves the complete construction and testing of such a system in a treatment representative environment.The system builds on an ORTEC GM

We report the case of a 58-year-old man with a giant partially thrombosed anterior communicating artery aneurysm, which presented with mass effect. Our treatment strategy consisted of endovascular aneurysm circulatory exclusion prior to surgical resection. To do so, we first occluded both the two A1 segments and the aneurysm neck with a neck-bridge device to prevent further coil migration within t

Aspects of parental interaction were assessed in 20 families with diabetic, insulin-dependent children, using hour-long video-taped interviews, the children being in optimal (O, n = 10) or poor (P, n = 10) metabolic control and showing optimal or poor psychological adaptation. In comparison with the O-group parents, the P-group parents were less appreciative of one another, were less congruent in

Neurobehavioral deficits in neuromotor function, verbal memory, executive function and attention found in patients with schizophrenia and their relatives have been suggested to be liability indicators or predictors of schizophrenia. It remains uncertain which of these neurobehavioral deficits are components of the illness itself or characteristics associated with genetic risk for it. The purpose o

Production of high-amylose potato lines can be achieved by inhibition of two genes coding for starch branching enzymes. The use of antisense technology for gene inhibition have yielded a low frequency of high-amylose lines that mostly was correlated with high numbers of integrated T-DNA copies. To investigate whether the production of high-amylose lines could be improved, RNA interference was used
