16. Clinical Studies on Adrenocortical Tumours using [11C]-metomidate Positron Emission Tomography
Sammanfattning : Adrenal tumours, discovered en passant in patients undergoing radiological examinations for non-adrenal disease, so-called adrenal incidentalomas, have increased dramatically in the recent era of more sophisticated diagnostic modalities such as high resolution multidetector computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Furthermore, primary aldosteronism (PA) has been documented in several screening studies as being far more common than previously believed among hypertensive patients. LÄS MER
17. Insights into Marine Fish Physiology in a Changing World
Sammanfattning : Ocean acidification and global warming are largely caused by increased levels of atmospheric CO2, and marine fish are exposed to both these stressors simultaneously. Although the effects of temperature on fish have been investigated over the last century, the effects of moderate CO2 exposure and the combination of both stressors are not well-understood, especially long-term effects.

18. Effects of age and stimulation strategies on cochlear implantation and a clinically feasible method for sound localization latency
Sammanfattning : Treating prelingual deafness with cochlear implants paves the way for spoken language development. Previous studies have shown that providing the intervention at six to 11 months is better than at 12-17 months. LÄS MER
19. Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Tractography in Epilepsy Surgery Candidates
Sammanfattning : In selected patients with medically refractory epilepsy, surgical treatment can render the patients seizure free or significantly reduce seizure frequency. Temporal lobe resection (TLR) for temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most commonly performed epilepsy surgery procedure. LÄS MER
20. Studies of diagnosis and differential diagnosis in primary aldosteronism
Sammanfattning : This thesis comprises three studies with the general aim to improve our knowledge on the prevalence and diagnostics in primary aldosteronism (PA). PA is a hypertensive disorder with an estimated prevalence of 5-18 % in the hypertensive population. LÄS MER
