  1. 1. Cancer in organ transplant recipients

    Author : Caroline Stenman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cancer; organ transplantation; skin cancer; heart transplantation; lung transplantation;

    Abstract : Tens of thousands of transplantations are performed around the world each year. Organ transplant recipients (OTR) are obliged to receive life-long medical treatment with immunosuppressive drugs to ensure graft function. However, such medications entail an increased risk of developing a broad spectrum of malignancies, especially skin cancer. READ MORE

  2. 2. Diagnostic aspects of skin cancer and lichen sclerosus studied with laser scanning microscopy

    Author : Despoina Kantere; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; skin cancer; lichen sclerosus; reflactance confocal microscopy; multiphoton microscopy;

    Abstract : Histopathologic examination of tissue biopsies is the current gold standard for the diagnosis of dermatological problems. Similarly, in oncology, sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy is the state-of-the-art diagnostic method for me- tastasis screening. READ MORE
