    Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses infections in prostate biopsy – a global problem. Over 3 million prostate biopsies are performed annually and 3% of men suffer a severe infection. The risk of infection is increasing in parallel with rising antibiotic resistance. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Needle Punching of Wet Cellulose Fibre Structure

    Författare :Maria Klingberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; out-of–plane; fibre orientation; needle punching; fibre network structure; paperboard; cellulose fibre;

    Sammanfattning : Needle punching of cellulose fibre structures was studied, in order to explore the possibility for a new method for bonding to be used in the paperboard industry. The interest in such subject was based on the need for stronger fibre-to-fibre bonding in the thickness direction of paperboard. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Overcoming the Barriers of Fine-Needle Aspiration

    Författare :Filipe Marques; Niclas Roxhed; Heikki J. Nieminen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cysts; Cystic fluid; Pancreatic Cancer; Fine-needle Aspiration; Early diagnosis; Surgical instruments; Nitinol; Absorbable sutures; Loop brush; Cythopathology; Rapid on-site evaluation; Microfluidics; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Cysts, closed sac-like structures filled with fluid or air, can form anywhere in the body. In the majority of cases, cysts are benign (not cancerous). However, these structures can also be precursors of cancer, pointing to the location where cancer can originate. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Core Biopsy of Breast and Axillary Lesions : Technical and Clinical Aspects

    Författare :Shahin Abdsaleh; PG Lindgren; Per Skaane; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiology; Automatic core needle biopsy; Semiautomatic core needle biopsy; Surgical specimen; Dynamic needle behavior; Hormone Receptors; Radiologisk forskning; Radiological research; Radiologisk forskning;

    Sammanfattning : The aims of this work were to image and analyze the needle behavior at automated core biopsy, to investigate the clinical utility of an alternative core biopsy technique using a semiautomated gun in breast and axillary lesions, and also to compare core biopsy with surgical specimens in malignant breast lesions regarding histologic features and hormone receptor expression.In two experimental studies, using butter and silicon phantoms, respectively, the needle pass was imaged and its dynamic behavior studied.

  5. 5. Comparison of stereotactic fine needle aspiration biopsy and core needle biopsy in breast lesions

    Författare :Karin Leifland; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of two biopsy methods by comparing stereotactic fine needle aspiration biopsy (S-FNAB) with stereotactic core needle biopsy (S-CNB). The biopsies were performed by the same radiologist, in the same breast lesion on the same occasion, in order to establish which method that best can be recommended in different kind of mammographically detected lesions.
