In our previous studies using optical spectroscopy, both ex vivo and in vivo, most promising results were obtained for tissue diagnosis. Moreover, invasive procedures for biopsy or radiofrequency ablation in these tissues are all very common. Thus,…
This study is performed to compare the diagnostic performance and cost-effectiveness of different methods in the preoperative characterization of ovarian masses: RMI compared toa) simple ultrasound-based rules as a first step test and subjective…
Primary Objective: To assess whether the combination of Saline Infusion Sonohysterography (SIS) and Endometrial Brush Biopsy (EMB) will create an innovative algorithm for diagnosing corpus uteri malignancy in postmenopausal women suffering from…
The principal objective of the study is to determine if the performance of the new technique (magnetic tracer and magnetometer) is equivalent to the performance of the standard technique (patent blue dye and radioisotope, wire localization).The…
The primary objective is to investigate the quality (whether assessable by a pathologist or not) of the endometrial sample obtained by aspiration when performed directly before or after the SIS in postmenopausal women. Secondary objectives are to…
Primary objectiveTo determine whether adding the MRI/US fusion technique using mpMRI images for directed biopsy of a ROI leads to a higher detection rate of PCa per patient compared to a systematic 12-core biopsy protocol including directed biopsy…
To test the feasibility of breast MR elastography and explore the viscoelastic parameters of (1) normal breast tissue, of (2) breast tumours and of (3) scar tissue in the breast after lumpectomy.
This large prospective multi-center cohort study aims to identify patient*s characteristics that significantly influence ovarian response to mild stimulation with a fixed dose of 75 IU recombinant FSH
To determine which advanced image enhanced modality is the most feasible for the detection of endometriosis lesions, with respect to the specificity and sensitivity of the investigated modalities. To determine which imaging modality reveals more…
Our primary objective is to develop an easily assayable germline-based panel of biomarkers to aid in selecting prostate cancer patients for management with active surveillance. As a secondary objective, we tend to incorporate potentially promising…
To answer the question if dried blood spot (DBS) analysis and saliva hormone testing are reliable methods to determine the concentration of NGF-ß in healthy subjects.
Primary Objective:To assess the ability of BR55 to identify area(s) of VEGFR2 expression in human prostate by ultrasound molecular imaging on the basis of a visual score in comparison with histopathology analysis (location based on expression of…
To investigate the additional value of MRI and MRI-guided biopsy in men with an elevated PSA in the general practitioners* (GP) practice regarding the detection of both insignificant and significant cancer, and reduced biopsies.
To determine the accuracy of MRI with DWI in detecting residual disease in patients with uterine cervical cancer treated with (chemo)radiotherapy.To determine the additional value of using DWI to a standard MRI protocol.To evaluate in the inter-…
1. To construct a Dutch multicenter prospective biorepository for validation of biomarker and imaging products.2. To provide a Medical Technology Assessment (MTA) of newly developed biomarkers, contrast enhanced ultrasound and multimodality MR Iin…
Primary Objective: the primary objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of [18F]FDHT PET/CT for in vivo evaluation of bone metastases in prostate cancer. Active locations will be compared with those seen on conventional imaging (bone…
In this proposed study, we aim to test not only the safety and biodistribution of [68Ga]Sarabesin 3, but also its potential to visualise prostate cancer. If the peptide proves to be successful, a next study will be initiated to test the potential to…
Primary: • To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of DWI-MRI to identify patients who will develop local failure after radio-chemotherapy of cervix cancer.Secondary: • To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of MRI techniques including (T2-…
Primary goal: determine the diagnostic quality of CE-MRI scans acquired in supine positionSecundary goal: determine the accuracy of deformable image registration between prone CE-MRI and non-CE-MRI in supine position as an alternative option
Detect exfoliated cells from STICs in lavage fluid from the uterine cavity and proximal fallopian tubes
