    Sammanfattning : Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is gaining increased popularity in the diagnosis of soft tissue lesions. FNAC used as a primary examination method to obtain a morphologic diagnosis, has been part of the diagnostic work-up of patients admitted to the Musculoskeletal Tumor Center of the Lund University Hospital since 1972.

  3. 2. Comparison of stereotactic fine needle aspiration biopsy and core needle biopsy in breast lesions

    Författare :Karin Leifland; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of two biopsy methods by comparing stereotactic fine needle aspiration biopsy (S-FNAB) with stereotactic core needle biopsy (S-CNB). The biopsies were performed by the same radiologist, in the same breast lesion on the same occasion, in order to establish which method that best can be recommended in different kind of mammographically detected lesions.

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer (CaP) is the most prevalent malignancy among men in Sweden. One major problem associated with CaP is the choice of treatment since the disease may develop very differently from patient to patient. Many efforts have focused on the development of markers for prognosis and monitoring treatment affecting the endocrine system of CaP. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Hormones and breast cancer : aspects on receptor expression and metabolism

    Författare :Lars Löfgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Breast cancer; fine needle aspiration biopsy; tamoxifen; megestrol acetate; SHBG; sex steroid hormone receptors; Syndecan-1;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women in the western world. Sex steroid hormones are implied as risk factors but endocrine regimens are also used in the therapy of breast cancer. Current knowledge about the endocrine and metabolic effects of different treatments is incomplete. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The clinical value of genetic analyses of bone and soft tissue tumors

    Författare :Charles Walther; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Tumors of bone and soft tissue are common but only constitute 1 % of all malignant tumors. The malignant tumors are often difficult to diagnose due to their rarity and morphological resemblance between subtypes. This makes the diagnostic process challenging. LÄS MER
