  1. 1. Interstitial Laser Thermotherapy of Liver Tumours. Methodology and Application

    Författare :Páll Helgi Möller; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Resection; Liver; Neoplasm; Blood flow; Monitoring; Feedback control; Light penetration; Bare fibre; Sapphire probe; Nd:YAG laser; Interstitial thermotherapy; Hyperthermia; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

    Sammanfattning : Interstitial laser thermotherapy (ILT) is a method well suited for selective local destruction of malignant tumours. In the present work, a laser thermotherapy system based on feedback temperature control of energy delivery (through computerised feedback system) was developed. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Small-Scale Absorbed Dose Modelling in Selective Internal Radiation Therapy : Microsphere Distribution in Normal Liver Tissue

    Författare :Jonas Högberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; clusters; dosimetry; heterogeneity; liver; microspheres; radioembolisation; simulations; SIRT; surgery; yttrium-90;

    Sammanfattning : Radioembolisation (RE), with yttrium-90 (90Y) labelled microspheres, is an increasingly common treatment method for unresectable liver tumours. The tolerable mean absorbed dose for normal liver (NL) tissue is higher in RE than in External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT); absorbed dose heterogeneity is thought to be one important reason, together with a low absorbed dose rate, but the knowledge of microsphere distributions is limited.

  5. 4. Midgut Carcinoid Tumours : New Diagnostic Procedures and Treatment

    Författare :Staffan Welin; Eva T. Janson; Barbro Eriksson; Larry Kvols; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medicine; Midgut carcinoid tumour; Chromogranin A; Carcinoid heart disease; Survival; Octreotide pamoate; Tyrosine kinase receptors; Platelet derived growth factor receptor; Epidermal growth factor receptor; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Midgut carcinoid tumours are rare with an incidence of 0.5-2.1/100 000. The primary tumour is usually small and grows slowly but has almost always set metastases at diagnosis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Haemodynamic management in liver surgery

    Författare :Lena Sand; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; liver resection; nitroglycerine; central venous pressure; vasopressin; patient position; PEEP;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Liver resection surgery is a potentially curative treatment for liver tumours. The liver is a highly vascular organ, and substantial intra-operative blood loss is common. Increased blood loss negatively impacts both postoperative outcome and long-term survival. LÄS MER
