21. Physical Aspects of Thermotherapy - A study of heat transport with a view to treatment optimisation
Sammanfattning : Local treatment with the aim to destruct tissue by heating (thermotherapy) may in some cases be an alternative or complement to surgical methods, and has gained increased interest during the last decade. The major advantage of these, often minimally-invasive methods, is that the disease can be controlled with reduced treatment trauma and complications. LÄS MER
22. Prognostic role of tumour associated trypsin inhibitor in colorectal cancer patients
Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common forms of human cancer worldwide with approximately 1 million new cases detected every year. CEA is currently the only accepted CRC marker incorporated into clinical practice, where it is used for early detection of metastasis in follow-up of patients having stage II and III disease, and for monitoring response to adjuvant treatment.

23. The Pancreatic Tumour Microenvironment. Influence by macrophages and glucose levels on tumourigenesis
Sammanfattning : Pancreatic cancer is the fourth cause of cancer-related death with a 5-year survival rate less than 5%. Two of the risk factors are chronic pancreatitis and type 2 diabetes (T2D), which are believed to promote the tumour progression. LÄS MER
24. Fluorescence spectroscopy in tissue for identification and temperature control of embedded lesions
Sammanfattning : Fluorescence spectroscopy in two different biomedical applications have been studied. One field has been to explore whether fluorescence spectroscopy can be used to determine the depth of a fluorescent object inside a tissue-like medium. LÄS MER
25. Risk factors in oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma
Sammanfattning : År 2002 drabbades omkring 275 000 individer runt om i världen av cancer i munhålan. Mer än hälften av dessa kommer att dö av sin sjukdom inom 5 år. Förekomsten av cancer i munhåla och svalg (Oral and Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, OOSCC) varierar i olika delar av världen. LÄS MER
