1. Resonance sensor technology for detection of prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer in men in Europe and the USA. Some prostate tumours are regarded as stiffer than the surrounding normal tissue, and therefore it is of interest to be able to reliably measure prostate tissue stiffness. The methods presently used to detect prostate cancer are inexact, and new techniques are needed. LÄS MER
2. Applanation Resonance Tonometry for Intraocular Pressure Measurement
Sammanfattning : Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is one of the major risk factors for glaucoma. Since glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness, reliable methods for measuring the IOP are important. This doctoral dissertation presents a new method, applanation resonance tonometry (ART), for measurement of IOP. LÄS MER
3. Tactile sensing of prostate cancer : a resonance sensor method evaluated using human prostate tissue in vitro
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most frequent type of cancer in men in Europe and the USA. The methods presently used to detect and diagnose prostate cancer are inexact, and new techniques are needed. LÄS MER
4. Prostate cancer sensor : combining Raman spectroscopy and tactile resonance technology
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer type among men in Sweden. The most prevalent curative treatment for PCa is radical prostatectomy (RP), i.e., complete surgical removal of the prostate. LÄS MER
5. Resonator sensor technique for medical use : an intraocular pressure measurement system
Sammanfattning : In the work of this doctoral dissertation a new resonator sensor technique, first presented in 1989, has been further developed and evaluated with focus on technical characteristics and applications within the medical field. In a first part a catheter-type tactile sensor using the resonator sensor technique was evaluated in a silicone model and applied to human prostate in vitro. LÄS MER
