MRI findings in candidates for lumbar disc prosthesis: reliability and relationship to disability and pain
(Doctoral thesis, 2014-11-21)Background and objective: In candidates for lumbar disc prosthesis, limited reliability data exist for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings relevant to planning of treatment and to evaluation of outcome after treatment. ... -
MRI measures of brain volume and cortical complexity in clinical groups and during development
(Doctoral thesis, 2009-05-07)The complex structure of the surface of the brain might elude classical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods of characterization, when it comes to measures of surface irregularities. Such measures may be important when ... -
MRI-assessed tumor-free distance to serosa predicts deep myometrial invasion and poor outcome in endometrial cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Objectives To explore the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-derived tumor measurements for the prediction of histopathological deep (≥ 50%) myometrial invasion (pDMI) and prognostication ... -
An mri-based radiomic prognostic index predicts poor outcome and specific genetic alterations in endometrial cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Integrative tumor characterization linking radiomic profiles to corresponding gene expression profiles has the potential to identify specific genetic alterations based on non-invasive radiomic profiling in cancer. The aim ... -
MRI-based radiomic signatures for pretreatment prognostication in cervical cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Accurate pretherapeutic prognostication is important for tailoring treatment in cervical cancer (CC). Purpose To investigate whether pretreatment MRI-based radiomic signatures predict disease-specific ... -
MRnews: Design Explorations into Accessibility and News
(Master thesis, 2023-06-02)Creating accessible technology and content is generally seen as beneficial for all users. This is particularly important when the content has a significant societal impact, such as news stories. To find new and innovative ... -
MRPS23 amplification and gene expression in breast cancer; association with proliferation and the non-basal subtypes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-16)Purpose MRPS23 is recognized as a driver of proliferation in luminal breast cancer. The aims of the present study were to describe MRPS23 copy number change in breast cancer, and to assess associations between MRPS23 copy ... -
MRTF specifies a muscle-like contractile module in Porifera
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Muscle-based movement is a hallmark of animal biology, but the evolutionary origins of myocytes are unknown. Although believed to lack muscles, sponges (Porifera) are capable of coordinated whole-body contractions that ... -
