1. Clinical diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation, outcome predictors for surgical treatment
Sammanfattning : Diskbråck - en utbuktning/bristning av mellankotskivan så att disksubstans tränger in i ryggmärgskanalen - är en av de få orsakerna till ryggutlöst smärta som framgångsrikt kan behandlas kirurgiskt. Trots förbättrad röntgendiagnostik och förfinade kirurgiska metoder har operationsresultaten inte nämnvärt förbättrats under de senaste decennierna. LÄS MER
2. Gadodiamide injection for Enhancement of MRI in the CNS. Applications, dose, field and time dependence
Sammanfattning : Aims of the study The aims of this study using Gadodiamide injection were to investigate: · Whether Gadodiamide injection was comparable to Gd-DTPA for the enhancement of CNS lesions. · The contrast effect at different field strengths. · The effective time-window for the enhancement of blood-brain barrier damage.

3. Effects of high intensity focused ultrasound on the intervertebral disc
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to study and try to optimise high intensity focused ultrasound treatment of the intervertebral disc. We demonstrated that it was possible to heat intervertebral discs with HIFU delivered by 50 or 5 mm diameter ultrasound transducers. LÄS MER
4. Assessment of lumbar radicular pain. Validity and predictive value of clinical tests
Sammanfattning : Radicular pain is in the majority of cases caused by a disc herniation with a coexisting inflammation. It is characterized by positive neural tension tests, such as the Slump test, and by decreased range of motion (ROM) in the straight leg raising test (SLR) and lumbar flexion (Fingertip-to-floor test[FTF]).
