21. FDG-PET in Cervical Cancer - Translational Studies
Sammanfattning : Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in females. The treatment, based on clinical FIGO stage, carries a significant risk of side effects. FDG-PET enables non-invasive studies of glucose metabolism. Cancer cells show an increased glucose uptake and metabolism that can be visualised and further analysed. LÄS MER
22. Characterization and Clinical Application of Normoxic Polymer Gel in Radiation Therapy Dosimetry
Sammanfattning : Cancer is one of the main causes of death in the world, particularly in developing countries and is considered as a major public health problem. Radiation therapy has been an important modality for treatment of cancer for many decades. LÄS MER
23. Brain Tumor Imaging and Treatment Effects. Imaging findings and cognitive function in glioblastoma patients
Sammanfattning : AbstractBackground: Glioblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor. Operation with maximal resection, if feasible, otherwise biopsy followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy with temozolomide is standard therapy. The prognosis remains poor, with median overall survival being 15 months despite therapy. LÄS MER
24. PNA and affinity protein tools for selective tumor targeting of radiopharmaceuticals
Sammanfattning : Targeted radiotherapy of cancer intends to selectively deliver cytotoxic radionuclides to tumor cells. Affinity proteins of various kinds are explored for this task, and depending on the affinity protein used, different challenges arise. LÄS MER
25. Lymphoedema and Breast Cancer. A Physiotherapeutic Approach
Sammanfattning : Ten percent of the female population in Sweden will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime, but only a minority will die from the disease. Arm lymph oedema is a well-known complication following breast cancer treatment and the incidence varies between about 10% when axillary node dissection is performed and about 40% when axillary radiotherapy is added.
