  1. 1. Resonance sensor technology for detection of prostate cancer

    Författare :Ville Jalkanen; Olof Lindahl; Britt Andersson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; resonance sensor; prostate tissue; stiffness; detecting prostate cancer; Medical engineering; Medicinsk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer in men in Europe and the USA. Some prostate tumours are regarded as stiffer than the surrounding normal tissue, and therefore it is of interest to be able to reliably measure prostate tissue stiffness. The methods presently used to detect prostate cancer are inexact, and new techniques are needed. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Tactile sensing of prostate cancer : a resonance sensor method evaluated using human prostate tissue in vitro

    Författare :Ville Jalkanen; Olof Lindahl; Britt Andersson; Tomas Jansson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tactile resonance sensor; prostate tissue; prostate cancer; stiffness; density; elastic; variations; tissue histology; Medical engineering; Medicinsk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most frequent type of cancer in men in Europe and the USA. The methods presently used to detect and diagnose prostate cancer are inexact, and new techniques are needed. LÄS MER

  4. 3. A flexible resonance sensor system for detection of cancer tissue : evaluation on silicon

    Författare :Anders P. Åstrand; Britt Andersson; Ville Jalkanen; Olof A. Lindahl; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The most common form of cancer among men in Europe and the US is prostate cancer. When a radical prostatectomy has been found necessary, it is of interest to examine the prostate, as tumour tissue on the capsule might indicate that the cancer has metastased. This is commonly done by a microscope-based morphometric investigation. LÄS MER

  5. 4. A Tactile Resonance Sensor System for Detection of Prostate Cancer ex vivo : Design and Evaluation on Tissue Models and Human Prostate

    Författare :Anders P Åstrand; Britt M Andersson; Ville Jalkanen; Olof A Lindahl; E. Göran Salerud; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; elektronik;

    Sammanfattning : Background The most common form of cancer among males in Europe and the USA is prostate cancer, PCa. Surgical removal of the prostate is the most common form of curative treatment. LÄS MER
