1. 1. Development of Feedback Microwave Thermotherapy in Symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

   Författare :Sonny Schelin; Urologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nephrology; Urologi; nefrologi; Urology; PET; Schelin Catheter; epinephrine; local anaesthetics; microwave thermotherapy; intraprostatic blood flow; PLFT; Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia; intraprostatic temperature; CoreTherm;

   Sammanfattning : Abstract: The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate ProstaLund Feedback Treatment® (PLFT®) and the CoreTherm® device with regard to biophysics, mechanisms of action, treatment indications, additional techniques, efficacy and safety in the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The application of two biophysical equations in the PLFT software is explained. LÄS MER

3. 2. Spridning och ekonomiska effekter av medicinsk teknologi vid behandling av magsår, prostataförstoring och gallsten

   Författare :Per Carlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Technology assessment; Economic evaluation; Diffusion of medical technology; Peptic Ulcer; Prostatic Hyperplasia; Gallstone disease; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

   Sammanfattning : The general aim of the study is to analyse the economic consequences of diffusion and changed utilization of medical technology. The intention is to widen the empirical basis prospects for assessing the future consequences of technologies other than those studied within the scope of this project. LÄS MER

4. 3. Feedback thermotherapy for benign prostatic enlargement : A clinical and methodological evaluation

   Författare :Lennart Wagrell; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; benign prostatic hyperplasia; transurethral microwave thermotherapy; feed-back thermotherapy; intraprostatic blood-flow; intraprostatic temperature; bladderneck; PET; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; kirurgi; särskilt urologi; Urology;

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate a new treatment strategy for symptomatic benign prostatic enlargement.The transurethral thermotherapy (TUMT) antenna design was studied. The design influences the heating-profile significantly and the absorbed energy in a target volume were only about 13-20% of the energy delivered. LÄS MER

5. 4. On the natural history, diagnosis and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia

   Författare :Stepan Vesely; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Lower urinary tract symptoms LUTS ; benign prostatic hyperplasia BPH ; bladder outlet obstruction; transurethral prostatectomy TURP ; transurethral microwave thermotherapy TUMT ;

   Sammanfattning : There are a number of important issues which remain unknown or poorly understood in the natural history of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The standard investigation of patients with BPH gives controversial results in relation to the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). LÄS MER

7. 5. Molecular characterization of prostate hyperplasia in prolactin transgenic mice

   Författare :Karin Dillner; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Prolactin-transgenic; mouse; prolactin; prostate hyperplasia; gene expression analysis;

   Sammanfattning : Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer are age-related diseases, affecting a majority of elderly men in the western world, and are known to be influenced by several different hormones, including sex hormones. Although the hormone prolactin (PRL) is well known to exert trophic effects on prostate cells, its involvement in the pathophysiology is still poorly characterized. LÄS MER
