  1. 1. Near infrared and skin impedance spectroscopic in vivo measurements on human skin : development of a diagnostic tool for skin cancer

    Författare :Ida Bodén; Peter Naredi; Britta Lindholm-Sethson; Paul Geladi; Bo Karlberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Combined probe head; Malignant melanoma; diagnosis; NIR; Skin impedance; PCA; PLS-DA; kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Every year approximately 2800 Swedes are diagnosed with malignant melanoma, the form of cancer that is most rapidly increasing in incidence in the Western world. The earlier we can identify and diagnose a malignant melanoma, the better is the prognosis. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Excess skin after bariatric surgery - patients' perspective and objective measurements

    Författare :Christina Biörserud; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; obesity; bariatric surgery; post bariatric plastic surgery; massive weight loss; excess skin; SESQ; discomfort from excess skin; objective measurements;

    Sammanfattning : Most of the world's population lives in countries where overweight and obesity kills more people than underweight. The only effective treatment is found to be bariatric surgery. Excess skin is an undervalued, negative effect following the massive weight loss after the procedure. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Treatment of Skin Wounds with Cell Transplantation and Gene Transfer

    Författare :Tor Svensjö; Lunds universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pigs; gene regulation; cell culture; fibroblasts; keratinocytes; wound healing; skin; gene transfer; Transplantation; gene therapy; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: A large number of different wound coverings have been used in order to improve the wound microenvironment, and thus accelerate repair. Since almost two centuries, clinicians and researchers have developed techniques for skin transplantation. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Photodynamic therapy in the head and neck

    Författare :Mathias von Beckerath; Claes Möller; Göran Laurell; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Photo Dynamic Therapy; Cancer; Skin; Larynx; 5-ALA; UVradiation; sarcoma; squamous cell carcinoma; porfimer sodium; temoporfin; voice; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Photodynamic therapy, PDT, is a method to diagnose and treat cancer. In PDT a sensitizer is administered to the patient and this sensitizer is accumulated in tumors. If the sensitizer-containing tumor is subjected to a laser of a specific wavelength the tumor is fluorescing allowing diagnostics. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Optimizing the magnetic tracer technique for sentinel lymph node detection and tumour localization in breast cancer surgery

    Författare :Allan Jazrawi; Andreas Karakatsanis; Staffan Eriksson; Fredrik Wärnberg; Jonas Manjer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast Cancer; Sentinel Node; Super paramagnetic ironoxide nanoparticles; SPIO; Skin Staining; Magnetic resonance imaging; magnetic seed; guidewire; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women, and the primary treatment modalities are still breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and sentinel lymph node dissection (SLND) in most cases. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO) are gaining momentum as a tracer for sentinel lymph node detection. LÄS MER
