    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ultrasound; skeletal muscle; intramuscular; dynamics; Tissue Doppler Imaging; Speckle Tracking; strain; quantification;

    Sammanfattning : Pain and disorders of the human skeletal muscles are one of the most common reasons for medical consultations in the western countries today and there is a great need to improve both the understanding and treatment of several different muscular conditions.Techniques describing the muscle function in vivo are often limited by either their invasiveness or lack of spatial resolution.

  5. 14. Dual-modality probe for prostate cancer detection by combining Raman spectroscopy and tactile resonance technology

    Författare :Morgan Nyberg; Tomas Jansson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Medical Engineering for Healthcare; Medicinsk teknik för hälsovård;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate adenocarcinoma, or prostate cancer (PCa), is the most common type of cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths for men in Sweden and Europe. Radical prostatectomy (RP) is the most common curative treatment for PCa. This is a surgical procedure where the entire prostate is removed. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Heart failure in elderly with focus on diagnosis and prognosis

    Författare :Mona Olofsson; Kurt Boman; Jan-Håkan Jansson; Tomas Jernberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; elderly; chronic heart failure; primary health care; natriuretic peptides; prognosis; mortality; hospitalisation;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Patients older than 75 years with heart failure (HF) are at increased risk for mortality and hospital admissions. Echocardiography and brain natriuretic peptides (BNP, NTproBNP) are important diagnostic tools but sparsely evaluated in elderly PHC patients. LÄS MER
