31. Interventions for portal hypertension in patients with portal vein occlusion and possible effects of a stent-graft on hepatic circulation
Sammanfattning : Symptomatic portal hypertension (PH), is often treated by transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). Patients with PH, caused by prehepatic portal vein occlusion, require recanalization with stent or stent-graft often followed by additional TIPS. LÄS MER
32. Quantitative imaging with PET : performance and applications of 76Br, 52Fe, 110mIn and 134La
Sammanfattning : The use of positron emission tomography (PET) has so far mainly been limited to a few nuclides with short half-lives such as 11C and 18F. Certain applications require nuclides with longer half-lives, such as 76Br and 52Fe. LÄS MER
33. High-resolution imaging of kidney tissue samples
Sammanfattning : The kidney is one of the most important and complex organs in the human body, filtering hundreds of litres of blood daily. Kidney disease is one of the fastest growing causes of death in the modern world, and this motivates extensive research for better understanding the function of the kidney in health and disease.

34. Affibody-Based Molecular Imaging and Targeted Therapy of HER3-Expressing Cancer
Sammanfattning : The human epidermal growth factor receptor type 3 (HER3) is overexpressed in different types of cancer and is a known contributor to disease progression and resistance to cancer therapy. This thesis is based on five original articles, which aimed to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of affibody-based agents for management of HER3-expressing cancers. LÄS MER
35. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Human Brown Adipose Tissue : Methodological Development and Application
Sammanfattning : Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic organ with the main human depot located in the cervical-supraclavicular (sBAT) region. BAT is proposed as a potential therapeutic target for obesity and diabetes. LÄS MER
