Primary goal:To investigate whether specific plaque characteristics are associated with ischemic lesions, especially (clinically silent) cerebral micro-infarcts, we will perform preoperative high resolution 3 and 7 Tesla MR plaque imaging in…
The main goal of this study is to investigate the performance of two CGM devices, FreeStyle Navigator® CGM system and Guardian® RT in relation to the subcutaneous microcirculatory perfusion (as measured by the orthogonal polarization spectral…
Correlate plaque characteristics, determined on high resolution 7 Tesla MRI, with cerebral damage ((clinically silent) cerebral (micro) infarcts or bleeds), also seen on 7 Tesla MRI. As gold standard histology of the plaques will be obtained
Demonstrate the ability of OCT to distinguish malignant renal tissue from benign (normal) renal tissue by means of attenuation-coefficient.
Serum hepcidin levels are elevated in hemodialysis patients and may contribute to functional iron impairment and thus to ESA-resistance. Kinetics of hepcidin in hemodialysis patients has not been studied in detail. This study is designed to provide…
The analysis is performed of thrombocyte function before, during and and after CABG surgery with dedicated tests as Light Transmission Aggregometry(LTA), thromboelastography (TEG), Multiple Electrode Aggregrometry (MEA) en Platelet Function Analyzer…
To identify the mechanism(s) of pain in patients with chronic pain after inguinal hernia repair.
Prospective study: The potential use of intraoperative, ICG based, fluorescence imaging of LN's during CRC lymphadenectomy.
Our primary study objective is whether visualizing and scoring of emboli is technically feasible. Secondary we want to asses the occurence and incidence of embolic events during spinal instrumentation surgery by intraoperative monitoring with TEE.…
Objective is to determine the stump volume change in lower limb amputees, in the post operative period. Especially interesting is to know when the stump volume stabilizes, and doesn*t decrease anymore, and if there are any fluctuations in volume.
The main objective of the study was to prove the effectiveness of cryoablation in palliating pain and correlate the patients with a matched group of the Dutch bone metastasis study. The secondary objectives are to determine the accuracy of cryoprobe…
Primary objectives:(1) Prevent progression of precursor lesions of the head and neck mucosa by treating selected lesions at risk for malignant outgrowth(2) Demonstrate that the detection of chromosomal instability (CIN) is indeed a powerful tool to…
Objective of the study is to asses quality of fracture reduction and patient-relevant outcomes with the intra-operative use of the 3D-RX-system as compared to the conventional 2D-fluoroscopy in patients with traumatic intra-articular fractures of…
Optical Tissue Stylet - descriptive observational study into paravertebral space detection in humans
The primary objective of the trial is to investigate if the optical tissue stylet technology can reliably identify the thoracic paravertebral space. Diffuse reflectance spectra will be acquired during needle advancement, with custom-made needle…
Establishment whether usage of high viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs leads to a reduction in leakage incidence compared to usage of conventional (low-medium) viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs.Since evidence is scarce or…
(1) Investigate diagnostic performance (sensitivity) of HD bronchoscopy, with or without surface enhancement or tone enhancement in comparison to standard WLB for detecting abnormalities of the tracheobronchial tree. Furthermore we aim to…
The general aim of this study is to develop and evaluate imaging techniques of tendon properties of the hand that can be used in clinical studies or standard clinical care in patients with flexor tendon injuries. Specific aims:1. Develop a protocol…
The objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of the sentinel lymph node biopsy in multicentric breast cancer prospectively and multi-institutional.
Whether the DNIC test can be used to make a prediction of postoperative pain perception and consumption of analgesics after live donor nephrectomy.
This study aims to increase the knowledge on perioperative cardiovascular function and volume management in liver transplantation in order to provide a more scientifically based approach to cardiovascular and fluid management. This may be beneficial…
