The prognostic value of location and size change of pathological lymph nodes evaluated on CT-scan following radiotherapy in head and neck cancer KU Leuven
Overall survival after chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) for head and neck cancer ranges between 50 and 60% after 5 year of follow-up. Local and/or regional recurrence is the most frequent form of therapy failure. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the initial location and size change of pathological lymph nodes as evaluated on Computed Tomography (CT) studies can help predict outcome.

Alterated talar and navicular bone morphology is associated with pes planus deformity: A CT-scan study KU Leuven
We compared bone and articular morphology of the talus and navicular in clinically diagnosed flatfeet and evaluated their potential contribution to talo-navicular joint instability. We used CT images to develop 3D models of talus and navicular bones of 10 clinically diagnosed flatfeet and 15 non-flatfeet. We quantified their global bone dimensions, inclination and dimensions of the articular surfaces and their curvatures. Additionally, ratios of ...

Assessment of occlusion with the T-Scan system in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery Universiteit Hasselt KU Leuven
Dental occlusion varies among individuals, and achieving correct physiological occlusion after osteotomy is essential for the complex functioning of the stomatognathic system. The T-Scan system records the centre of force, first contact, maximum bite force, and maximum intercuspation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the usefulness and consistency of T-Scan in assessing occlusion before and after orthognathic surgery. Occlusal ...
Cytolytic virus activation therapy and treatment monitoring for Epstein-Barr virus associated nasopharyngeal carcinoma in a mouse tumor model Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is 100% associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Expression of viral proteins in the tumor cells is highly restricted. EBV reactivation by CytoLytic Virus Activation (CLVA) therapy triggers de novo expression of early viral kinases (PK and TK) and uses antiviral treatment to kill activated cells. The mechanism of tumor elimination by CLVA was analyzed in NPC mouse model using C666.1 cells. ...
IgG4-gerelateerde aortitis KU Leuven
IgG4-gerelateerde aortitis kan voorkomen op zowel thoracaal als abdominaal niveau en kan aanleiding geven tot een aortaruptuur. Deze aandoening is echter vooral gekend in zijn minder spectaculaire verschijningsvorm bij oudere, mannelijke patiënten met vage klachten van abdominale of thoracale pijn, vermagering en subfebrilitas. Op een CT-scan ziet men klassiek een dikke ontstekingslaag rond de aorta, die op een PET-scan meestal sterk 18-FDG ...
