21. Metastatic Mechanisms in Malignant Tumors
Sammanfattning : The ultimate cause of cancer related deaths is metastasis. This thesis is about three of the main human cancers; breast, colorectal and pancreatic cancer, that together account for more than 25% of the cancer-related deaths worldwide. LÄS MER
22. The papilla of Vater : issues relevant to transpapillary cannulation and clinical management
Sammanfattning : Background: Many endoscopists have since the beginning of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) commented on the variation in the macroscopic appearance of the papilla of Vater. How the macroscopic appearance of the papilla influences the cannulation efforts during ERCP has been discussed but not previously investigated in-depth. LÄS MER
23. Single Molecule Detection : Microfluidic Automation and Digital Quantification
Sammanfattning : Much of recent progress in medical research and diagnostics has been enabled through the advances in molecular analysis technologies, which now permit the detection and analysis of single molecules with high sensitivity and specificity. Assay sensitivity is fundamentally limited by the efficiency of the detection method used for read-out. LÄS MER
24. Optimization of radiotherapy in locally advanced lung cancer
Sammanfattning : Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide as well as in Sweden, where the incidence is around 3500 new cases per year. About 50% have distant metastases by the time of diagnosis and are treated with palliative intent. LÄS MER
25. Cancer of the Colon and Rectum : Prognostic Factors and Early Detection
Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common causes of death from malignant disease. Nevertheless, no ideal screening method exists and there is a lack of prognostic and predictive factors to support clinical decisions and to aid the development of a more individualized treatment for patients with CRC.
