2. 16. Clinical and epidemiological studies in myeloproliferative neoplasms

   Author : Malin Hultcrantz; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), including polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF), are clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by excessive terminally differentiated myeloid cells. MPNs can progress to secondary myelofibrosis or acute myeloid leukemia (AML)/myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). READ MORE

4. 17. Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy in Neuroendocrine Neoplasms : Aspects of tumour characteristics, receptor recycling and peptide mass

   Author : Ulrika Jahn; Anders Sundin; Mark Lubberink; Ulrike Garske-Román; Mona-Elisabeth Rootwelt-Revheim; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neuroendocrine tumors; Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy PRRT ; Peptide; Small-Intestinal; Pancreatic; Dosimetry; Somatostatin receptor;

   Abstract : Neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) can arise in any part of the body, but most commonly in the lungs, bronchi, and the gastrointestinal tract including the pancreas. They combine neuroendocrine and tissue-of-origin-specific characteristics; explaining different symptoms depending on the organ of origin. READ MORE

5. 18. Human Bone Marrow Microenvironment in Health and Disease

   Author : Sandro Bräunig; Avdelningen för molekylär hematologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hematopoietic microenvironment; Imaging; Myeloproliferative neoplasms; Spatial relationships; acute lymphoblastic leukaemia ALL ; Fibrosis; Mesenchymal stromal cell; Single cell RNA sequencing;

   Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are safeguarded from various threats such as stress, injury, or radiationwithin specialized microenvironments or niches within the bone marrow. In this thesis, we investigatedvarious facets of the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment and its critical role in hematopoiesis andrelated disorders. READ MORE

6. 19. Endosonography and pretreatment tumor profiling - from sampling, staining, to sequencing

   Author : Per Hedenström; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; endosonography; fine-needle biopsy; pancreatic neoplasms; gastrointestinal stromal tumors; KIT; PDGFRA; Ki-67; imatinib; neoadjuvant therapy;

   Abstract : Background and aims: Endosonography-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is imperfect in diagnosing solid pancreatic lesions (SPL) and subepithelial lesions (SEL) including gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). In GISTs, imatinib therapy is effective only in variants of oncogenes KIT and PDGFRA. READ MORE

7. 20. CT Colonography: implementation and technical developments

   Author : Valeria A Fisichella; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : X-ray Computed Tomography; Computed Tomographic Colonography; Computer-Assisted Image Processing; Three-Dimensional Imaging; Colonoscopy; Colon; Rectum; Colorectal Neoplasms; Computer-Assisted Diagnosis; Ionizing Radiation;

   Abstract : Background: Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) is a minimally invasive imaging method for the detection of colorectal neoplasms. Uncertainty about its diagnostic performance, optimal visualization method, long learning curve and radiation exposure are among problems with CTC, affecting its implementation in routine health care.
