  1. 11. Measurement of Tumor Extent and Effects of Breast Compression in Digital Mammography and Breast Tomosynthesis

    Författare :Daniel Förnvik; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; digital mammography; breast tomosynthesis; breast compression; pressure distribution; breast cancer; circulating tumor cell;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer affecting women in the western countries. Today x-ray digital mammography (DM) of the breast is commonly used for early detection of breast cancer. However, the sensitivity of mammography is limited, mainly due to the fact that a 3D volume is projected down to a 2D image. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Towards Immunotherapy of Midgut Carcinoid Tumors

    Författare :Sofia Vikman; Thomas Tötterman; Valeria Giandomenico; Bengt Widegren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Immunology; midgut carcinoid; gene expression; immunotherapy; tumor antigen; VMAT-1; T cell; HLA-A*0201-binding peptide; IFNγ; regulatory T cell; Immunologi;

    Sammanfattning : Classical midgut carcinoids belong to neuroendocrine tumors of the gastroenteropancreatic tract (GEP-NETs) and are associated with serotonin overproduction. The term midgut is derived from the tumors’ embryological site of origin: enterochromaffin cells in the lower jejunum, ileum, caecum and the ascending colon. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Next generation molecular diagnostics using ultrasensitive sequencing

    Författare :Stefan Filges; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Liquid biopsy; cell-free DNA; circulating tumor DNA; molecular diagnostics; next-generation sequencing; unique molecular identifiers; melanoma;

    Sammanfattning : Massively parallel sequencing enables the exploration of the genetic heterogeneity within microbial, viral and tumor cell populations. Detecting circulating tumor DNA in blood and other body fluids has the potential to revolutionize molecular diagnostics. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha as a target cytokine in vascular disease

    Författare :Lena Brånén; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
