1. Detecting prostate cancer metastases - PET/CT and the sentinel node technique
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignancies. Its treatment is highly dependent on the presence or absence of metastases. The available invasive and non-invasive modalities for detecting metastases are imperfect. LÄS MER
2. Sentinel Node in Clinical Practice : Implications for Breast Cancer Treatment and Prognosis
Sammanfattning : The introduction of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has conveyed several new issues, such as the risk of false negativity, long-term consequences, the prognostic significance of micrometastases and whether ALND can be omitted in sentinel lymph node- (SLN) positive patients.Archived SLN specimens from 50 false negative patients and 107 true negative controls were serially sectioned and stained with immunohistochemistry.

3. Artificial Intelligence-based Assessment of Prostate Cancer Metastases in PET/CT
Sammanfattning : Background: Quantification of tumor burden from bone scan in the form of automated Bone Scan Index (aBSI) has been validated as an imaging biomarker for patients with prostate cancer. Positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) is more sensitive and accurate compared to conventional imaging such as bone scan. LÄS MER
4. Studies on Prediction of Axillary Lymph Node Status in Invasive Breast Cancer
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among females in Sweden. Axillary lymph-node dissection is a standard procedure in the management of breast cancer, aiming at obtaining prognostic information for adjuvant therapy decisions. Axillary dissection entails considerable morbidity. LÄS MER
5. Modern Staging in Primary Breast Cancer-aspects of micrometastatic disease in bone marrow and molecular profiles in lymph node metastases
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease with variations in the biological profile and subsequent clinical prognosis. Molecular mechanisms for tumour progression are currently being explored in scientific settings, suggesting parallel evolution of tumour cells at primary and metastatic locations. LÄS MER
