  2. 1. Advanced cranial navigation

    Author : Simon Skyrman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Neurosurgery is performed with extremely low margins of error. Surgical inaccuracy may have disastrous consequences. The overall aim of this thesis was to improve accuracy in cranial neurosurgical procedures by the application of new technical aids. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis deals with PACAP and PACAP type-1 receptors in the sensory and autonomic parts of the peripheral nervous system. In the rat, PACAP is expressed in small-sized sensory neurons and in C-fibers. READ MORE

  6. 4. Physical Modeling of Brain and Head Kinematics

    Author : Johan Ivarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; brain injury; skull base; rotational acceleration; physical models; lateral ventricles; head kinematics; padding materials; sulci; free motion headform; brain kinematics;

    Abstract : The development of head injury criteria and countermeasures for head protection requires understanding of how different factors affect brain and head kinematics. In this thesis, 2D physical models of the human head were developed and used to evaluate how various factors affect brain kinematics during angular head kinematics. READ MORE
