1. Stereotactic imaging in functional neurosurgery
Sammanfattning : Background: The birth of stereotactic functional neurosurgery in 1947 was to a great extent dependent on the development of ventriculography. The last decades have witnessed a renaissance of functional stereotactic neurosurgery in the treatment of patients with movement disorders. LÄS MER
2. Stereotactic functional procedures in the treatment of essential tremor
Sammanfattning : Background: Essential tremor (ET) is the most common movement disorder. In cases resistant to pharmacological treatment, functional stereotactic neurosurgery can be an alternative. Lesional surgery has largely been replaced by deep brain stimulation (DBS). The current target of choice is the ventrolateral thalamus (Vim). LÄS MER

Sammanfattning : Patients with stage I non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are potentially curable. Eradication of the primary tumour is a prerequisite for cure with surgery as standard treatment. LÄS MER
4. Stereotactic microdialysis for metabolic assessment and experimental treatment of malignant glioma
Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma multiforme, the most common primary brain tumor, has a dire prognosis despite multimodal treatments that include surgery and radio-chemotherapy. To improve the outcome of this destructive disease, we need to improve our understanding of its tumor biology. LÄS MER
