Nutritional recommendations during cancer chemotherapy
Balcarová, Kateřina ; Maruna, Pavel (advisor) ; Živný, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis investigated the nutritional recommendations during cancer chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to determine whether the side effects of chemotherapy affect the dietary intake of a cancer patient. Apart from that, several goals were set. Firstly, to determine the awareness of oncologic patients treated with chemotherapy about nutritional recommendations that could influence the side effects of this therapy. Secondly, to investigate whether they act in accordance with these nutritional recommendations and to detect the source which is commonly used. Finally, to summarize the information about cancer treatment focusing on chemotherapy, its side effects and nutritional recommendations for them. The research was conducted in the oncology department of the Jablonec nad Nisou Hospital lasting from January to February in 2021. The data were collected anonymously by the non-standardized questionnaire. This questionnaire was given to the patient in the outpatient clinic and collected the next day when the patient attended the treatment. The research group involved adult oncology patients undergoing chemotherapy within the last 3 months. The total research group contained 37 patients, 20 women and 17 men were involved. The research focused on the relationship between chemotherapy and...

Centre for Prevention, Masaryk Oncology Institute in Brno
Krejčí, Johana ; Adamson,, Krsitina Richter (referee) ; Sládeček, Svatopluk (advisor)
Diplomová práce zpracovává komplexní návrh nového Centra prevence rakoviny v areálu Masarykova onkologického ústavu na Žlutém kopci v Brně. První stavba svého druhu v České republice doplňuje současnou zástavbu nemocničního areálu. Koncepce navrženého souboru budov se zaměřuje na kontakt hranice nemocničního areálu s nově vznikající obytnou čtvrtí v této lokalitě. Návrh obsahuje jak samotné centrum prevence, lůžkové oddělení nebo protonové centrum, tak pronajímatelné prostory pro další služby široké veřejnosti.

Centre for Prevention, Masaryk Oncology Institute in Brno
Buzová, Magdaléna ; Kraus, David (referee) ; Galeová, Nicol (advisor)
The objective of the diploma thesis is the new building of Cancer Prevention Centre, first of its kind in the Czech Republic. The site is located on steep terrain of the south hillside of Žlutý kopec in Brno, which is a part of Masaryk Oncological Hospital complex. The aim of the Cancer Prevention Centre is to attract the citizens’ attention and invite them to undergo a preventive medical check-up with the potential to save hundreds of lives every year. The project takes this fact in consideration and strives to find ways leading not only towards establishing new relationship between the building and the public, but also towards connecting the city centre and nearby by residential area with the hospital complex. The three volumes of the buildings create a dynamic composition and therefore complete the characteristic development of Masaryk Oncological Centre. The main concept however revolves around the motive of instability, balance and journey which are all linked to tumour diseases.

Centre for Prevention, Masaryk Oncology Institute in Brno
Lanžhotská, Klára ; Páterová, Kateřina (referee) ; Sládeček, Svatopluk (advisor)
Assignment of diploma thesis is a design of the Prevention center building and expansion of Radiation oncology clinic in Masaryk oncological institution in Brno. The newly build complex should contain aggregate facility for preventive examinations including screening section, advisory centers and center for proton therapy. Another components will also be an inpatient ward, personnel facilites, apartments for employees and rentable units. The purpose of creation of a new prevention center is an increase in capacity for carrying out prevention within commerical programme and also during taking care of people with increased risk of occurence of a malignant tumor.

Advanced Methods of Perfusion Analysis in MRI
Macíček, Ondřej ; Frollo, Ivan (referee) ; Mikl, Michal (referee) ; Jiřík, Radovan (advisor)
This dissertation deals with quantitative perfusion analysis of MRI contrast-enhanced image time sequences. It focuses on two so far separately used methods -- Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and Dynamic susceptibility contrast MRI (DSC-MRI). The common problem of such perfusion analyses is the unreliability of perfusion parameters estimation. This penalizes usage of these unique techniques on a regular basis. The presented methods are intended to improve these drawbacks, especially the problems with quantification in DSC in case of contrast agent extravasation and instability of the deconvolution process in DCE using advanced pharmacokinetic models. There are a few approaches in literature combining DCE and DSC to estimate new parameters of the examined tissue, namely the relaxivity of the vascular and of the interstitial space. Originally, in this scheme, the 2CXM DCE model was used. Here various models for DCE analysis are tested keeping in mind the DCE-DSC combination. The ATH model was found to perform better in this setting compared to 2CXM. Finally, the ATH model was used in alternating DCE-DSC optimization algorithm and then in a truly fully simultaneous DCE-DSC. The processing was tested using simulated and in-vivo data. According to the results, the proposed simultaneous algorithm performs better in comparison with sequential DCE-DSC, unleashing full potential of perfusion analysis using MRI.

Health centre Proficlinic
Růžička, Věroslav ; Kalánek, Jiří (referee) ; Brzoň, Roman (advisor)
The subject of my diploma thesis is the processing of project documentation of the construction part for the realization of the new build private health centre Proficlinic in the outskirts of České Budějovice. It is a two-storey partially basement building. On the first floor there is a pharmacy with the preparation of cytostatics, surgery x-ray and facilities for staff. On the underground floor there are technical facilities for new buildings and storage facilities. On the second floor there are individual surgeries and day care center of oncology. The ceilings are made of prestressed panels. The roof of the building is flat single-skinned.

Oncolytic viruses in cancer immunotherapy
Zupko, Jakub ; Bartůňková, Jiřina (advisor) ; Janovec, Václav (referee)
Oncolytic virotherapy is a field dedicated to exploiting viruses in the battle against cancer, where their specific cytolytic effects are sorely needed. This work focuses on the mechanisms and limitations of oncolytic virotherapy, on the recent advances in the field and on the potential oncolytic viruses hold for the future.
