11. Gastrointestinal stromal tumours. On diagnosis and treatment
Sammanfattning : Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) are thought to originate from the interstitial cells of Cajal, which show many properties in common with neurons of the gastrointestinal tract. High-risk GIST has a very poor prognosis and tumour recurrence is common after intentionally curative surgery. LÄS MER
12. Prognostic Factors for Death in Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumours
Sammanfattning : Tumours in the small intestine are rare compared to those in other gastrointestinal organs. Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SI-NETs) are the most common small bowel tumours with an annual incidence of 0.3-1.7 per 100 000 persons. LÄS MER
13. Pharmacokinetics and dosimetry of radiolabelled octreotide for tumour therapy
Sammanfattning : Somatostatin (SS) receptors (sstr) are usually highly expressed on neuroendocrine (NE) tumours. The radiolabelled SS analogue 111In-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide is today widely used to scintigraphically visualise NE tumours, and high 111In activity concentrations are obtained in tumour vs. normal tissues.

14. Strategies for optimisation of 177Lu-octreotate therapy – exploring local administration and combination therapy regimens
Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a group of heterogeneous tumour types that originate in hormone-producing organs. Patients with NETs are often diagnosed after the primary tumour has metastasised. LÄS MER
15. Multiparametric MRI for evaluation of tumour treatment response : Studies of 177Lu-octreotate therapy of neuroendocrine tumour
Sammanfattning : Clinical assessment of tumour response to treatment largely relies on estimates of tumour size by, e.g., measuring the largest tumour diameters on magnetic resonance (MR) or computed tomography (CT) images, weeks or months after treatment. LÄS MER
