Internal dosimetry. Macroscopic, small-scale and microscopic perspectives

Popular Abstract in Swedish Interndosimetri ur ett makroskopiskt och mikroskopiskt perspektiv Med interndosimetri menas den metod man använder för att bestämma en absorberad dos till en vävnad för ett radioaktivt ämne som är fördelat i kroppen. Absorberad dos, dvs den av strålningen deponerade energin per massenhet, mäts i enheten gray (1 J/kg = 1 Gy) och kan beräknas med ekvationerna som syns påInternal dosimetry deals with the assessment of absorbed dose for radionuclides distributed inside the body. The absorbed dose is in its turn used for correlation with the biological effect caused by the irradiation. In radioimmunotherapy is however the correlation not easily found and factors influencing this are evaluated and discussed in this work. The internal dosimetry could be subdivided int

Exploring Themes and Challenges in Developing Sustainable Supply Chains - A Complexity Theory Perspective

Popular Abstract in English If you wonder about the journey of goods and services before they reach you and the effects that journey has on the natural environment and the society, this dissertation is for you. In order to deliver goods and services from raw materials to you, the customer/consumer, several organizations and individuals interact with each other.

The transformation of supply chains towards these targets calls for the development of innovative strategies and the need to continuously identify, classify, and tackle the challenges that can hinder the execution of such strategies. To develop

The urban domino effect: a conceptualization of cities’ interconnectedness of risk, Input paper

Cities are both at risk and the cause of risk. The interconnectedness of urban features and systems increases the likelihood of complex disasters and a cascade or ‘domino’ effect from related impacts. However, the lack of research means that our knowledge of urban risk is both scarce and fragmented. This paper presents a framework for understanding and addressing urban risk. It examines the unique

Tankar om telefonen : Att fånga teknikens betydelse med en frågelista

Uppsatsen handlar om en frågelista som författaren utarbetade för den dokumentation som Folklivsarkivet vid Lunds universitet bedriver. Frågelistan skulle med hjälp av arkivets fasta meddelarstab dokumentera hur telefonen förändrade vardagen. Uppsatsen behandlar arbetet att konstruera frågelistan och vilket resultat och kunskap som kunde nås med hjälp av svaren.

Preliminary results from A Large Scale Trial with Intelligent Speed Adaptation in Lund, Sweden.

Within the framework of the Swedish national trial with Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) in urban areas, 225 cars are equipped with an active gas pedal for a period of 10 months in the city of Lund. In order to evaluate the systems a number of studies are being carried out. The driving data of all equipped vehicles is logged with regard to time and speed, both before and after activating the sys

Knee Injury and Knee Osteoarthritis -Development, evaluation and clinical application of patient-relevant questionnaires

Popular Abstract in Swedish Knäledsförslitning är vanligt. Ledsjukdom, med smärta och nedsatt funktion som följd, är den vanligaste kroniska sjukdomen hos äldre, vanligare än högt blodtryck, hjärtsjukdom och diabetes. Behandlingen av knäledsförslitning är fokuserad på smärtlindring. Till en början används vanligt mediciner mot smärtan, men senare i sjukdomsförloppet byts den smärtande leden ofta uThe overall purpose was to evaluate patient-relevant outcomes in patients with knee injury and post-traumatic osteoarthritis of the knee. A self-administered questionnaire, The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was developed by literature search, consulting an expert panel (including patients referred to physical therapy because of knee-related problems, orthopedic surgeons, and

Positive Effects of Noise on Cognitve Performance: Explaining the Moderate Brain Arousal Model

Abstract in Undetermined Distractors and environmental noise has long been regarded as detrimental for cognitive processing. In particular children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are extremely sensitive to distraction from task irrelevant stimuli. However, recently it has been shown that exposure to auditory white noise facilitated cognitive performance in ADHD children where
