Inleiding: Nederland telt 28 Samenwerkende Algemene Ziekenhuizen (SAZ, 2018). X bestaat uit een aantal verzorgingshuizen en 3 ziekenhuislocaties waar 300.000 patiënten uit de regio Emmen, Hoogeveen en Stadskanaal terecht kunnen voor de best mogelijke zorg (X, 2018). Binnen de ziekenhuizen van X is de …

The natural gas/diesel dual-fuel engine is an interesting technique to reduce greenhouse gas emission. A limitation of this concept is the emission of un-combusted methane. In this study we analyzed the influence of PFI gas-injection timing on cylinder to cylinder gas-distribution, and the resulting …

In the search for low greenhouse gas propulsion, the dual fuel engine provides a solution to use low carbon fuel at diesel-like high efficiency. Also a lower emission of NOx and particles can be achieved by replacing a substantial part of the diesel fuel by for example natural gas. Limitations can be …

This work assesses the feasibility of the planar PIV technique to study the characteristics of a siloxane vapor D4. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) seeding particles were used to track the motion around a rotating disk in a low speed flow. Vector fields of natural convection (NC) and a superposition of NC and …

Enhancing sweetness of vegetables by addition of sucrose or sweeteners can increase acceptance but is not necessarily desirable. An alternative strategy could be to combine vegetables with other vegetables. By offering combinations of vegetables it might be possible to suppress bitterness, enhance sweetness …

In dit onderzoek is gezocht naar de invloed van de b-waarde op bij Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) voor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Hierbij is gekeken naar een optimale beeldkwaliteit voor Contrast-to-Noise Ratio (CNR) en Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) voor de diagnose van een Transient Ischemic …

Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoom (NSCLC) is een vorm van longkanker die wordt behandeld met Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) waarbij in minder fracties een hogere dosis wordt gegeven. Hierdoor is het belangrijk dat de PTV-marges optimaal klein zijn om de therapeutische ratio hoog te houden. Met Image-Guided …

BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia might be a relevant lead for optimization of the condition of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) before chemoradiotherapy (CRT) to prevent long-term functional swallowing impairment, such as feeding tube dependency. METHODS: Regression analyses were performed to assess the …
