    Sammanfattning : Background/Aims: Swallowing difficulties are common after radiation therapy (RT) in head and neck cancer (HNC). The overall aim of this thesis was to address radiation-induced late dysphagia with regard to investigating anatomical risk structures related to the development of radiation-induced dysphagia, as well as methodological aspects in the evaluation of swallowing.

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a genetic disease caused by the accumulation of genetic changes such as mutations and chromosomal rearrangements. An increasing number of genetic studies of both hematological and solid neoplasms have shown that recurrent chromosome translocations often result in fusion oncogenes. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Body site of cutaneous malignant melanoma : primary tumor location in relation to phenotypic and prognostic factors

    Sammanfattning : The main purpose of this thesis was to analyze the primary body site of cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) in relation to phenotypic traits and prognosis. It is clear that several characteristics of CMM are different, and vary with the skin location where the tumor originated. LÄS MER
