  1. 16. Differentiation of renal oncocytoma from renal cell carcinoma by means of ⁹⁹Tc-Sestamibi SPECT/CT

    Författare :Antonios Tzortzakakis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: An increasing body of literature indicates the beneficial role of [99m]Tc-Sestamibi SPECT/CT in the non-invasive differentiation of renal oncocytoma (RO) from renal cell carcinoma (RCC). This thesis presents a comprehensive approach of [99m]Tc-Sestamibi SPECT/CT examination following the implementation of quantitative tools in addition to visual assessment. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Immunoglobulin A nephropathy and disease complications : register-based studies

    Författare :Simon Jarrick; Jonas Ludvigsson; Sigrid Lundberg; Adina Symreng; Colin C. Geddes; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immunoglobulin A nephropathy; nephrology; validation studies; register studies; cohort studies; mortality; ischemic heart disease; pregnancy; preterm birth;

    Sammanfattning : Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the commonest primary glomerular disease worldwide. A kidney biopsy is required for the diagnosis. IgA immune-complex depositions sets off a cascade leading to renal scarring, proteinuria and hypertension. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Development of superselective endovascular tissue access and sampling

    Författare :Rikard Grankvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Endovascular techniques have revolutionized healthcare by allowing effective treatments of vascular diseases not possible through other surgical means. They have also largely supplanted some surgical treatments due to increased safety and equal or sometimes increased efficacy. LÄS MER

  4. 19. The expression of the structural proteins dendrin and Neph1 in the glomerular filtration barrier in proteinuria

    Författare :Jenny Hulkko; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: In the normal kidney, the glomerular filtration barrier successfully clears about one litre blood per minute. Damage to the filtration barrier might lead to protein leakage in the urine – proteinuria. The major ultra-structural finding in glomerular diseases with proteinuria is foot process effacement (FPE).

  5. 20. Diagnosis of solid abdomino-pelvic tumours in children : A retrospective radiological study

    Författare :Claes Hugosson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Children; pelvic; staging: MR; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Oncology; onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Problems and Aims: Solid abdomino-pelvic tumours (APTs) in children constitute a heterogeneous group of masses which may originate from the retroperitoneum, the abdominal or pelvic cavities or any adjacent structure. They have different histological features, growth patterns and prognoses. LÄS MER
