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,…
To provide clinical management and, if required, treatment to subjects who at their concluding HPV-015 study visit displayed normal cervical cytology but tested positive for oncogenic HPV infection or who were pregnant at their concluding visit of…
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…
To establish biomarkers in nipple aspirate fluid, follow them in time and link them to breast cancer development at its earliest stage in women at high risk for breast cancer. Threshold values of biomarkers will be determined that point to a…
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…
(1) to measure the forces resulting from typical mammographic compressions by decomposing them into a component exercised on the breast and a component exercised on adjacent body structures, (2) to determine how the proportion of these two…
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…
The overall goal of this study is to further validate and improve the sentinel node procedure for prostate cancer using ICG-99mTc-nanocolloid. The first objective aims at further validation of the sentinel node procedure for prostate cancer via…
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…
During this feasibility study will be analysed if endometrial cells by using tampons can be obtained during surveillance of women with Lynch syndrome and first degree relatives at 50% risk of the gene mutation who get annual surveillance in the…
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…
Up front breast surgery in patients with primary distant metastatic breast cancer, will result in an improvement of the 2-year survival compared to the survival achieved with systemic therapy and delayed local treatment or systemic therapy alone.The…
Our primary objective is to determine whether testing for molecular markers, i.e. hrHPV, methylationmarkers , i.a. CADM1/MAL and combinations thereof, yields a higher sensitivity and specificity for the detection of CIN2/3 or cancer after treatment…
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.
