Tumor response in radionuclide therapy can be monitored with PET/CT and/or PET/MR. A high background photon fluence from a therapy radionuclide may influence both image quality and quantification, when imaging is performed intra-therapeutically, i.e. with high activity of the therapeutic radionuclide present. Here, count losses and image distortion have been investigated for preclinical and clinic

Protein levels, mRNA expression, and localization of laminin alpha1 and alpha2 chains in development and in adult mice were examined. Recombinant fragments were used to obtain high-titer-specific polyclonal antibodies for establishing quantitative radioimmuno-inhibition assays. This often demonstrated an abundance of alpha2 chain, but also distinct amounts of alpha1 chain for adult tissues. The hi

In the evolution of bird migration, partial migration is assumed to be an important intermediate step between migration and residency. Partial migration is characterised by the existence of both migratory and resident individuals in a given population. Compared to regular migration, relatively little is known about partial migrants and their migratory performances. In my thesis, I have studied th

Mäns våld mot kvinnor och våld i nära relation utgör ett allvarligt samhälls- och jämställdhetsproblem. För att synliggöra våldet infördes år 1998 brottet grov kvinnofridskränkning i brottsbalkens 4 kap. 4 a § 2 st. Brottet var avsett att fånga upprepade kränkningar inom ramen för en nära relation som begås av en man mot en kvinna. Uppsatsen syftar till att redogöra för gällande rätt, samt undersöMen’s violence against women and violence in intimate relationships consti-tute a serious social and gender equality issue. To raise awareness of this violence, the crime of gross violation of a woman’s integrity was introduced in 1998 under Chapter 4, Section 4a, Paragraph 2 of the Penal Code. The crime was intended to address repeated violations within the context of an intimate relationship com

Det övergripande syftet med uppsatsen är att belysa bevisproblematiken i våldtäktsmål och undersöka vissa konsekvenser av en potentiell samtyckesreglering i svensk rätt. Med traditionell rättsdogmatisk metod söker jag ge svar på hur en samtyckesreglering skulle kunna antas påverka det svåra bevisläget i våldtäktsmål. Idag regleras våldtäkt i 6 kap 1 § brottsbalken och brottet består i att någon

Rättegångskostnadernas fördelning i tvistemål regleras sedan 1948 i 18 kap. RB. Av 18 kap. 4 § framgår hur fördelningen ska ske då part har flera yrkanden, eller då part endast har ett yrkande, men talan endast delvis bifalls. Innan RB:s införande reglerades fördelningen av rättegångskostnaderna i 21 kap. ÄRB. Bägge lagarna bygger på samma huvudregel, att tappande part ska betala vinnande parts räThe distribution of costs in civil proceedings are, since 1948, governed by Chapter 18 of RB. Paragraph 4 regulates how the distribution should be made when the case of one of the parties consists of several claims, or when one of the parties only have a single claim, but the case is only partially upheld by the court. Before the introduction of RB, the allocation of costs were in Chapter 21 of ÄR

The feeling of being unsafe in the city creates restrictions in many people's lives. The urban environment has an impact on the perception of safety and the municipality can through their work with the urban design affect the safety. This thesis analyzes a form of citizen participation in urban development, called safety walks. The aim of the study is to examine in which ways safety walks may

The aim of this study was to understand how school counselors experience mental-illness and self-harm behavior among pupils at junior high schools. The study was qualitative and based on semi-structured interviews with four school counselors at four different schools in a city in southern Sweden. My ambition was to find out how they experience the extent of mental illness and self-harm among adole

Preferensaktier är aktier som har bättre rätt till utdelning än de mer vanligt förekommande stamaktierna. Preferensaktier kan genom att utges till specifika aktieägare användas för att göra riktade utdelningar. Arbetsinsatser och kapitalinsatser beskattas inom två olika inkomstslag med betydande skattesatsskillnader och i fåmansföretag har ägarna ofta full kontroll över bolaget. Det gör att ägarnaPreference shares are stocks which have a better right to yield than common stocks. Preference shares can, by being issued to specific shareholders, be used to make targeted distributions. Effort and capital investment are taxed in two different types of income with significant tax rate differentials. Close company owners often have full control over the company, which allows them to enter into ag

Unga lagöverträdare har sedan länge särbehandlats i det svenska påföljdssystemet. Den som begår brott innan 21 års ålder särbehandlas idag både beträffande straffmätningen och påföljdsvalet. Bland annat får den unge lagöverträdaren sitt straff reducerat genom den så kallade straffrabatten. I december 2018 utkom ungdomsreduktionsutredningen med ett förslag om slopad straffrabatt för unga lagöverträYoung offenders have long been treated differently than adult offenders in the Swedish penal system. Anyone who commits crimes before the age of 21 is today treated differently both in terms of the sentencing measure and the choice of penalty. Among other things, the young offenders gets their sentence reduced by the so-called “penalty discount”. In December of 2018 a government department issued

One of the greatest challenges astronomers are facing today is understanding how galaxies form. We know that the Milky Way is a spiral disk galaxy, similar to many others we see in the sky, therefore the Milky Way is a benchmark for understanding the inner workings of disk galaxies. The task of unraveling the mystery of the formation of the Milky Way has been given to astronomers, who attempt to c

The aim of this study was to examine the Swedish prostitution law that makes it illegal to buy sexual services but legal to sell them. More specifically the aim was to find out the perceptions and attitudes of social workers in regards to the Sex Purchase Act which was enacted in 1999 and was first of its kind in the world. We carried out qualitative interviews in three larger Swedish municipaliti

Many decisions in the everyday work of the structural engineer are taken under the influence of uncertainties. The degree of uncertainty affects the quality and variability of the outcome of the structural design work. The effect of uncertainties related to knowledge and experience of the structural engineer was studied in a round robin investigation. Despite a relatively well defined task, the re
