21. On Pathophysiology and Treatment of Aortic Disease
Sammanfattning : Pathophysiological processes underlying abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation and aortic dissections (AD) are largely unknown. Molecular imaging of the inflammatory component may improve our understanding of AAA and AD pathophysiology. LÄS MER
22. Studies of biochemical brain damage markers in patients at a neurointensive care unit
Sammanfattning : Physical examination is the basic and most important tool in medical practice. However, at a neurointensive care unit, neurological status can sometimes be difficult to evaluate due to sedation or impaired consciousness. Repeated radiology may not always be feasible. LÄS MER
23. Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm : Molecular Imaging Studies of Pathophysiology
Sammanfattning : The pathological process behind abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation is poorly understood and difficult to study. The aim of the thesis was to study the pathophysiology of AAA formation with positron emission tomography (PET) technology, a molecular imaging technique, allowing in vivo studies of pathophysiological changes.

24. Influence of genetics and mechanical properties on large arteries in man
Sammanfattning : Arterial pathology is the major contributor to cardiovascular diseases and mortality. The mechanical properties of arteries are independent factors for cardiovascular disease and mortality, where genetics influence the structure of the arterial wall, which may result in change in arterial stiffness.

25. Improving Assessments of Hemodynamics and Vascular Disease
Sammanfattning : Blood vessels are more than simple pipes, passively enabling blood to pass through them. Their form and function are dynamic, changing with both aging and disease. This process involves a feedback loop wherein changes to the shape of a blood vessel affect the hemodynamics, causing yet more structural adaptation. LÄS MER
