2. 1. Applications of diffusion MRI: Tensor-valued encoding, time-dependent diffusion, and histological validation

   Author : Jan Brabec; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; diffusion MRI; meningioma; glioma; brain tumors; intracranial tumors; undulations; restricted diffusion; time dependence; spherical b-tensor encoding; linear b-tensor encoding; histogram analysis; anisotropic kurtosis; isotropic kurtosis; hyperintensity; conspicuity; white matter; detection; diffusion spectrum; consistency; type; grade; axon diameter; axonal trajectories; Fysicumarkivet A:2022:Brabec;

   Abstract : Diffusion MRI (dMRI) sensitizes the MR signal to the diffusion of water molecules at the microscopic level and thereby non-invasively probes tissue microstructure. This is relevant when determining biological properties of tissues, for example, cancer type and its malignancy. READ MORE

6. 4. The significance of low-grade inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract

   Author : David Lundgren; Pontus Karling; Mårten Werner; Klas Sjöberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Low-grade inflammation; gastrointestinal tract; faecal calprotectin; inflammatory bowel disease; Ulcerative colitis; irritable bowel syndrome; biomarkers; colonoscopy; proton pump inhibitors; albumin; C-reactive protein; Medicine; medicin;

   Abstract : BackgroundGastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are commonly reported in a normal population. Mostly, the symptoms are of benign cause but occasionally the symptoms can be signs of a more harmful disease. In general, it is difficult to distinguish whether the reported symptoms are caused by a benign (functional) or organic (i.e. READ MORE

7. 5. High-grade spondylolisthesis in young patients : Long-term results of in situ fusion

   Author : Anders Joelson; Per Wretenberg; Karin Frennered; Hans Tropp; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adjacent segment disk degeneration; Fusion in situ; Health-related quality of life; Sagittal balance; Self-image; Spondylolisthesis;

   Abstract : The purpose of this long-term follow-up of 38 of 40 consecutive patients was to evaluate the results of uninstrumented in situ fusion for high-grade isthmic spondylolisthesis three decades after surgery. The mean age at surgery was 14 (range 9-24) years. READ MORE
