  1. 1. Prognostic and predictive factors in laryngeal cancer treated with radiotherapy

    Författare :Hedda Haugen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Laryngeal cancer; accelerated radiotherapy; predictive factors; pre-radiotherapy hemoglobin level; MVD; p53; Ki-67; EGFr; histopathologic differentiation.;

    Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy (RT) and surgery are the only two curative treatments for patients with laryngeal cancer (LC). RT has the advantage that it offers a possibility to preserve a functioning larynx and hence a functioning normal voice. The response of tumors to RT is heterogeneous, even within the same tumor stage. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in Brain Tumors - Clinical Applications

    Författare :Isabella Björkman-Burtscher; Lund Diagnostisk radiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiology; Clinical physics; Localization; Abscess; Brain; Tumor; Spectroscopy; Magnetic Resonance; tomography; medical instrumentation; Klinisk fysiologi; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: · to present a test phantom and test method for evaluation of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) single volume localization techniques regarding signal contamination; · to describe the introduction of 1H-MRS in the daily routine of a standard MR-unit; · to evaluate the possibilities offered by 1H-MRS to improve preoperative diagnostic accuracy in patients scheduled for stereotactic biopsy of intracranial mass lesions; · to evaluate the possibilities offered by 1H-MRS to improve diagnostics and therapy control in patients with brain abscesses; · to test the hypothesis that 1H-MRS might be useful for differentiation of brain tumors, based on metabolic changes in tissue across brain lesions or surrounding tissue. Results and conclusions: · The test phantom and test method allow quality assessment with good reproducibility. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Biomarkers of Inflammation and Intestinal Mucosa Pathology in Celiac Disease

    Författare :Hanna Gustafsson Bragde; Jan Söderman; Ulf Jansson; Ewa Grodzinsky; Mats Fredrikson; Ross McManus; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic small intestinal immune-mediated enteropathy triggered by gluten. The only currently available treatment is complying with a lifelong gluten-free diet, which should not be commenced before a CD diagnosis has been established by diagnostic test results (including histopathologic assessment of small intestinal biopsies and CD-specific antibody levels).

  5. 4. Colon cancer : management and outcome in a Swedish population

    Författare :Annika Sjövall; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Colonic carcinoma; Population-based study; loco-regional recurrence; hepatic metastasis; survival;

    Sammanfattning : Colon cancer is common in Sweden, with about 3500 new cases every year. Tumours of the colon and rectum are usually addressed as an entity. Great effort has been made to improve the outcome after rectal cancer treatment with subsequent improvement of survival. LÄS MER
