1. Micromachined Microwave Sensors for Non-Invasive Skin Cancer Diagnostics
Abstract : Malignant melanoma is one of the cancers with the highest incident rates. It is also the most dangerous skin cancer type and an early diagnosis is crucial for the successful treatment of malignant melanoma patients. READ MORE

2. Photodynamic therapy in the head and neck
Abstract : Photodynamic therapy, PDT, is a method to diagnose and treat cancer. In PDT a sensitizer is administered to the patient and this sensitizer is accumulated in tumors. If the sensitizer-containing tumor is subjected to a laser of a specific wavelength the tumor is fluorescing allowing diagnostics. READ MORE

3. DNA Damage Response of Normal Epidermis in the Clinical Setting of Fractionated Radiotherapy : Evidence of a preserved low-dose hypersensitivity response
Abstract : Investigations of DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms in normal tissues have implications for both cancer prevention and treatments. The accumulating knowledge about protein function and molecular markers makes it possible to directly trace and interpret cellular DDR in a tissue context. READ MORE

5. Non-invasive monitoring of low molecular weight biomarkers relevant to skin inflammation and cancer
Abstract : Development of skin inflammation and cancer in viable epidermis and dermis involve slow molecular weight (LMW) metabolites. We hypothesize that these LMW compounds can be collected on the surface of the skin and used for non-invasive diagnostics of skin disorders. READ MORE
