1. Physical Modeling of Brain and Head Kinematics
Sammanfattning : The development of head injury criteria and countermeasures for head protection requires understanding of how different factors affect brain and head kinematics. In this thesis, 2D physical models of the human head were developed and used to evaluate how various factors affect brain kinematics during angular head kinematics. LÄS MER
2. Three-dimensional assessment of cardiac function; When right is wrong
Sammanfattning : Assessment of the right side of the heart is important in patients with heart disease; especially in patient with elevated pressure in the lung circulation. Decreased right ventricular function and elevated pressure in the right atrium are of poor prognostic value. LÄS MER
3. Influence of intracranial features on brain kinematics during head impact : biomechanical aspects concerning teleological protection of the brain
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. Brain imaging in preterm infants at term equivalent age : value and comparison of MRI and ultrasound
Sammanfattning : Cranial ultrasound (cUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the two most commonly used brain imaging techniques in preterm infants. cUS can be performed at the bedside and detects all major brain abnormalities (haemorrhages, infarctions, cysts, dilatation of the lateral ventricles) that are associated with severe neurodevelopmental disability.

5. Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus : Cerebrospinal Fluid Tap Test and Magnetic Resonance Imaging as Preoperative Prognostic Investigations
Sammanfattning : Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a condition with dilated cerebral ventricles but intracranial pressure within normal limits. The symptoms of gait impairment, cognitive decline and urinary incontinence develop gradually. Treatment with shunt insertion results in improvement in eight out of ten patients. LÄS MER
