16. Differentiation of renal oncocytoma from renal cell carcinoma by means of ⁹⁹Tc-Sestamibi SPECT/CT
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
17. Immunoglobulin A nephropathy and disease complications : register-based studies
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
18. Development of superselective endovascular tissue access and sampling
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
19. The expression of the structural proteins dendrin and Neph1 in the glomerular filtration barrier in proteinuria
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).

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