  2. 1. Scaphoid Fractures - epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment

    Author : Peter Jörgsholm; Malmö Handkirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Scaphoid fracture; carpal fracture; paediatric; radiography; CT; MRI; arthroscopy; scapholunate ligament injury; radial comminution; surgical treatment; conservative treatment; fracture union;

    Abstract : Abstract The scaphoid is the most commonly fractured carpal bone. The diagnosis is difficult and untreated the long-term results are poor. Approximately 10% do not unite even if they are treated properly. The aim of this thesis was to study scaphoid fracture epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment. READ MORE

  4. 2. Incidentally detected adrenal lesions - radiological aspects

    Author : Lilian Hammarstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Incidental finding; Adrenal incidentaloma; Adrenal Gland Neoplasm; Computed Tomography; Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Follow-up Studies; Oncology; Observer variation; Phantom Studies;

    Abstract : Incidentally detected adrenal lesions (“adrenal incidentalomas”) have become a growing clinical problem due to increased and refined radiology methods. Autopsy studies show frequencies as high as 7-8% in the elderly. A large part of such lesions give no health problems but some can be related to hormone overproduction or malignant disease.

  5. 3. The post-operative lumbar spine : a radiological investigation of the lumbar spine after discectomy using MR imaging and CT

    Author : Per Grane; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Lumbar spine; intervertebral discs herniation discitis nerves: radiculitisMR imaging CT contrast media.;

    Abstract : Problems and aims: The clinical outcome of repeat lumbar discectomy is not as satisfactory as that of the primary surgical procedure. One reason is the difficulty of assessing post operative radiological investigations and particularly the significance of the various radiological changes. READ MORE

  6. 4. Investigation of asphalt compaction in vision of improving asphalt pavements

    Author : Ehsan Ghafoori Roozbahany; Manfred N. Partl; Gabriele Tebaldi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cold asphalt pavement joints; asphalt joint laboratory production; IDT joint evaluation; DTT joint evaluation; 4PB joint evaluation; joints FEM analysis. Discrete Element Modeling DEM ; X-ray Computed Tomography CT ; Compaction Flow Test CFT ; Compactability;

    Abstract : Asphalt joints are potentially weakest parts of every pavement. Despite of their importance, reliable tools for measuring their mechanical properties for design and performance assessments are still scarce. READ MORE

  7. 5. Prediction of neurological outcome after cardiac arrest and targeted temperature management

    Author : Marion Moseby-Knappe; Lund Neurologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurological prognostication; brain injury; cardiac arrest; biomarkers; outcome; CT; guideline;

    Abstract : Background: Prediction of neurological outcome in unconscious patients after cardiac arrest (CA) forms the basis for decisions on further level-of-care based on results from clinical neurological examinations, neuroimaging (CT or MRI), neurophysiology (EEG or SSEP) and blood biomarkers of brain injury. Methods must be highly specific to avoid misclassifying patients with possibilities of a good outcome. READ MORE
