    Sammanfattning : The purpose was to study the prognostic and aetiologic risk factors for melanoma in correlation to histopathology. Paper 1-3: Thin tumours (... LÄS MER

  3. 2. Clinical-epidemiological studies on cutaneous malignant melanoma : A register approach

    Författare :Johan Lyth; John Carstensen; Christer Lindholm; Hans Starkhammar; Håkan Olsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Melanoma; early detection; population-based; registers; time trends; survival; prognostic factors; tumour thickness; stage at diagnosis; level of education; socioeconomic status; healthcare costs;

    Sammanfattning : The incidence of cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) is steadily increasing. Most of the patients have thin CMM with a good prognosis and a 5-year survival of about 90%. The prognosis is highly related to tumour thickness and clinical stage at diagnosis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Tumour vasculature, oxygenation and radiosensitivity - a numerical modelling study

    Författare :Jakob Heydorn Lagerlöf; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Angiogenesis; Dosimetry; Hypoxia; Modelling; Radionuclide therapy; Radiotherapy; Tumour Control Probability;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to investigate theoretically how parameters such as vessel density, blood oxygenation, blood velocity, spatial oxygen variation along vessels, tissue oxygen consumption and their distributions in uence the radiosensitivity of tumours. Numerical calculations are made in Matlab using voxel-based models. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Biomarker Discovery in Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma : A Study Based on Tissue Microarrays and Immunohistochemistry

    Författare :Margrét Agnarsdóttir; Fredrik Ponten; Peter Naredi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; antibody-based proteomics; automated analysis; biomarker; immunohistochemistry; malignant melanoma; survival; tissue microarray; Tumour biology; Tumörbiologi; Pathology; Patologi; Molecular medicine; Molekylär medicin; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : The incidence of cutaneous malignant melanoma has increased dramatically in Caucasians the last few decades, an increase that is partly explained by altered sun exposure habits. For the individual patient, with a localized disease, the tumor thickness of the excised lesion is the most important prognostic factor. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Significance of white matter anatomy in interpreting features and behaviour of low-grade gliomas and implications for surgical treatment

    Författare :Francesco Latini; Mats Ryttlefors; Lorenzo Bello; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; White matter; Cerebral gliomas; DTI; Brain-Grid; Brain mapping; Human connectome project; Anatomi; Human Anatomy; Oncology; Onkologi; Neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery; Radiology; Radiologi; Neurology; Neurologi;

    Sammanfattning : Diffuse gliomas are extremely heterogeneous tumours characterized by slow growth but extensive infiltration. Their kinetic features reflect the complex interaction over time with the surrounding brain, influencing treatment planning and outcome. LÄS MER
