  1. 1. Placental Function : An Epidemiological and Magnetic Resonance Study

    Author : Sara Sohlberg; Anna-Karin Wikstrom; Matts Olovsson; Ajlana Mulic-Lutvica; Johan Wikström; Karel Marsal; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; body height; body mass index; early preeclampsia; late preeclampsia; magnetic resonance imaging; placenta; perfusion; IVIM; risk factors; energy metabolism; magnetic resonance spectroscopy; 31P-MRS; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Abstract : Placental function is central for normal pregnancy and in many of the major pregnancy disorders. We used magnetic resonance imaging techniques to investigate placental function in normal pregnancy, in early and late preeclampsia and in intrauterine growth restriction. READ MORE

  2. 2. Technomedical Visions : Magnetic Resonance Imaging in 1980s Sweden

    Author : Isabelle Dussauge; Arne Kaijser; Pär Blomkvist; Eva Åhrén; Anne Beaulieu; KTH; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; anatomy; body; NMR; psychiatry; radiology; representations; Sweden; visual studies; history of medicine; history of technology; laboratory science; magnetic resonance; mediation; medical gaze; medical imaging; MRI; History of technology; Teknikhistoria;

    Abstract : The medical imaging technology called MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) stems from a blind measurement technology which was further developed in research and practice to enable seeing into the inner body. Vision with MRI was open-ended, and it was developed and tamed in a context of fragmented medical perspectives on the body and on technology. READ MORE

  3. 3. Multidimensional magnetic resonance imaging : new methods for analysis of cardiovascular dynamics

    Author : Lars Wigström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular flow and motion occur in three-dimensional (3D) space and vary dynamically over the cardiac cycle. The description of these complicated patterns using non-invasive imaging requires new tools for data acquisition, processing and visualization. READ MORE

  4. 4. Positron Emission Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Techniques in Diabetes

    Author : Lina Carlbom; Håkan Ahlström; Olle Korsgren; Olof Eriksson; Lars Johansson; Tove Grönroos; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Positron emission tomography; Magnetic resonance imaging; Magnetic resonance spectroscopy; Type 1 diabetes; Type 2 diabetes; PET MR; Pancreas transplantation; Perfusion; Radiology; Radiologi;

    Abstract : In order to further advance the field of diabetes research there is a great need for establishing validated non-invasive quantitative techniques to study the pancreas and other tissues of importance for blood glucose regulation. The general aim of this thesis was to explore magnetic resonance techniques and positron emission tomography as such tools. READ MORE

  5. 5. Cerebral blood flow distribution, collateral function and pulsatility in healthy and in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis  : a magnetic resonance imaging approach

    Author : Laleh Zarrinkoob; Jan Malm; Anders Eklund; Khalid Ambarki; Sepideh Amin-Hanjani; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aging; Arterial pulsatility; Carotid stenosis; Cerebral arteries; Cerebral blood flow; Cerebral collateral blood flow; Circle of Willis; Phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging;

    Abstract : Background: For the detection and treatment of early cerebral vascular disease it is of paramount importance to first understand the normal physiology of the cerebral vasculature, and subsequently, to understand how and when pathology can develop from that. This is especially important as the population above 65 years of age is increasing and aging itself is an established risk factor for the development of cerebral vascular disease. READ MORE
