  1. 16. Standardizing diagnostic assessment of autism spectrum disorder : assets and challenges

    Författare :Eric Zander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to study some previously under-researched psychometric properties of the standardized diagnostic instruments Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised [ADI-R] and Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule [ADOS] as well as the standardized Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition [VABS-II] in order to improve current diagnostic practice. Excellent interpersonal objectivity operationalized as interrater reliability of the ADI-R and the ADOS has been reported from research settings with highly trained, research reliable examiners.

  2. 17. Cost and benefits of cone beam computed tomography : for maxillary canines with eruption disturbance

    Författare :Helena Christell; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diagnostic methods; Cost-effectiveness; Economic evaluation; Systematic review; Cost-analysis; Radiology; Odontology; CBCT; Cone beam computed tomography;

    Sammanfattning : I tandvården finns allt fler metoder för prevention, diagnostik och behandling. Eftersom resurserna är begränsade bör den metod väljas där nyttan uppväger kostnaden. Idag saknas dock vetenskapliga belägg gällande kostnadseffektivitet för undersökning med Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). LÄS MER

  3. 18. The role of duplex scanning in the management of carotid artery disease

    Författare :Karl Logason; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Duplex scanning; Doppler spectral analysis; duplex criteria; Doppler angle of insonation; carotid artery stenosis; carotid endarterectomy; spontaneous cervical artery dissection; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Extracranial carotid artery disease, mainly due to atherosclerosis, is a common cause of stroke. The risk for future stroke can be reduced in selected patients by carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Duplex scanning has been increasingly used for diagnosis of carotid artery disease. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Neck Injury Risk in Rear-End Impacts. Risk Factors and Neck Injury Criterion Evaluation with Madymo Modelling and Real-Life Data

    Författare :Linda Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; injury criteria; rear-end impacts; neck injuries; mathematical modelling; injury probability; head restraints; BioRID; NICmax; risk factors; WAD; car seats;

    Sammanfattning : Soft-tissue neck injuries, also termed AIS 1 neck injuries, are common after low-speed rear-end impacts. These injuries, which can be long-lasting, have increased in frequency during the past few decades. There is no consensus regarding injury mechanisms; however, injury criteria have been proposed, without yet being fully evaluated. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Diagnosis and evaluation of therapeutic response of bone metastases

    Författare :Ipek Çiray; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Bone metastases; breast neoplasm; MR imaging; CT; diagnosis; therapy evaluation; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; diagnostisk radiologi; Diagnostic Radiology;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to investigate different aspects of different imaging modalities in the diagnosis of bone metastases and in the assessment of their response to therapy. The role of CT, with and without clinical information, was investigated as compared to CT-guided bone biopsy in the evaluation of suspected bone metastases. LÄS MER
