1. Dynamic skull reshaping for sagittal craniosynostosis
Sammanfattning : Objectives: The present investigation was aimed at expanding the knowledge base regarding the skull morphology in sagittal craniosynostosis and at assessing the safety and efficacy of two dynamic cranioplasty procedures, the modified pi-plasty procedure and the spring-mediated cranioplasty. Methods: The patient population consisted of children with non-syndromic sagittal craniosynostosis. LÄS MER
2. Evaluation of surgical outcomes in craniosynostosis
Sammanfattning : Background: A continuous and objective evaluation of surgical outcomes must be an integrated part of the technical development. The present thesis has the ambition to innovate the evaluation of surgical results allowing systematic and objective assessment of the surgical procedures used for metopic and unicoronal craniosynostosis (UCS).

3. Surgical Outcomes in Sagittal Craniosynostosis
Sammanfattning : The overarching aim of this thesis was to increase the understanding of patient and treatment related factors behind the variability in morphological outcomes seen in nonsyndromic sagittal craniosynostosis. There is a lack of knowledge regarding patient related predictors for the variability in outcomes, and consensus has yet to be reached regarding best practice with respect to surgical technique for the treatment of sagittal craniosynostosis.

4. Prospective Applications of Microwaves in Medicine : Microwave Sensors for Orthopedic Monitoring and Burn Depth Assessment
Sammanfattning : In recent years, the use of microwave techniques for medical diagnostics has experienced impressive developments. It has demonstrated excellent competencies in various modalities such as using non-ionizing electromagnetic waves, providing non-invasive diagnoses, and having the ability to penetrate human tissues within the GHz range.

5. Neuropsychological outcomes and health-related quality of life of children operated for nonsyndromic craniosynostosis
Sammanfattning : The primary aim of this thesis was to assess the intelligence quotient, attention function, adaptive behavior skills, and health-related quality of life of children operated for nonsyndromic craniosynostosis. The secondary aim was to evaluate whether surgical methods for treating sagittal synostosis were related to the outcomes. LÄS MER
