  1. 1. Evaluation of computer-assisted virtual treatment planning and template-guided surgery in dental implant treatment

    Author : Ai Komiyama; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Dental implant; computer-guided surgery; surgical template; flapless surgery; immediate loading; CAD CAM technique; marginal bone loss; soft tissue condition; accuracy;

    Abstract : One of the newly introduced concepts in implant dentistry is computer-guided surgery. The development of 3D implant planning software and imaging technology provide clinicians with 3D information of patients bony structures. READ MORE

  2. 2. Automatic generation of patient specific models for hip surgery simulation

    Author : Johanna Pettersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Simulation of surgical procedures in computer based simulator systems is a relatively new area of interest in the field of medical technology. Many different systems are under development, but it is still far until this technique becomes routine in a clinical environment. READ MORE

  3. 3. Accuracy of virtually planned and CAD/CAM-guided dental implant surgery

    Author : Andreas Pettersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : dental implant;

    Abstract : The treatment with dental implants was introduced in the 1960s as an aid for patients who were missing teeth. Recently CAD/CAM guided surgical concepts have been launched on the market as a solution for treating single, partial or completely edentulous patients with dental implants. READ MORE

  4. 4. Extracellular matrix mimetic multi-functional scaffolds for tissue engineering and biomedical applications

    Author : Ranjithkumar Ravichandran; Jaywant Phopase; Anthony Turner; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Regeneration of functional tissues or complex organs via the combination of viable cells, biomimetic scaffolds, morphogenic factors, and external biophysical cues are the principle aims of Tissue Engineering (TE). TE relies on the use of artificial 3D scaffolds that can mimic the microenvironment of native tissue to harness the regenerative potential of cells. READ MORE

  5. 5. Mismatch repair deficiency in colorectal cancer : prognosis and prediction for basic treatment strategies

    Author : Ioannis Gkekas; Jan Novotny; Karin Strigård; Richard Palmqvist; Ulf Gunnarsson; Christian Sturesson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; colorectal cancer; defective mismatch repair; prognosis and prediction; Oncology; onkologi;

    Abstract : Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a significant healthcare problem worldwide, being the third most common cancer and the fourth most frequent cause of cancer death. Environmental and dietary factors such as alcohol abuse, cigarette smoking, and genetic predisposition seem to constitute the main aetiologies. READ MORE
