  1. 21. Physical Aspects of Thermotherapy - A study of heat transport with a view to treatment optimisation

    Författare :Johan Olsrud; Sektion V; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; magnetic resonance; non-invasive; temperature; coagulation; prostatic; menorrhagia; liver tumour; finite element method FEM ; thermal conductivity; intracavitary; interstitial; laser; Thermotherapy; hyperthermia; MRI; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Medicin människa och djur ; Physics; Fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Olsrud;

    Sammanfattning : Local treatment with the aim to destruct tissue by heating (thermotherapy) may in some cases be an alternative or complement to surgical methods, and has gained increased interest during the last decade. The major advantage of these, often minimally-invasive methods, is that the disease can be controlled with reduced treatment trauma and complications. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Prognostic role of tumour associated trypsin inhibitor in colorectal cancer patients

    Författare :Alexander Gaber; Tumörmikromiljö; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; KRAS mutation; ERK1 2; TATI; Colorectal cancer; Prognosis; Biomarker; EGFR; STAT3;

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common forms of human cancer worldwide with approximately 1 million new cases detected every year. CEA is currently the only accepted CRC marker incorporated into clinical practice, where it is used for early detection of metastasis in follow-up of patients having stage II and III disease, and for monitoring response to adjuvant treatment.

  3. 23. The Pancreatic Tumour Microenvironment. Influence by macrophages and glucose levels on tumourigenesis

    Författare :Emelie Karnevi; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Pancreatic cancer is the fourth cause of cancer-related death with a 5-year survival rate less than 5%. Two of the risk factors are chronic pancreatitis and type 2 diabetes (T2D), which are believed to promote the tumour progression. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Fluorescence spectroscopy in tissue for identification and temperature control of embedded lesions

    Författare :Jenny Svensson; Atomfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Fluorescence spectroscopy in two different biomedical applications have been studied. One field has been to explore whether fluorescence spectroscopy can be used to determine the depth of a fluorescent object inside a tissue-like medium. LÄS MER
