The primary objective of this study is to test both the CAM-ICU and the ICSDS, using the DSM-IV criteria for delirium as golden standard. A secundary objective is to assess the value of the impression of the ICU physican whether or not a patient is…
To optimize the 3D ultrasound reconstruction and dynamometer as a clinical tool for measurement of morphological and mechanical muscle properties, and to compare the m .gastrocnemius medialis of healthy children to the m .gastrocnemius medialis of…
The aim is the optimisation of MRI-sequences in patients for clinical and scientific purposes.
To demonstrate the relation between the passive stiffness and the functional recovery of the CVA-patients. The passive stiffness will be measured clinicaly and instrumentaly.
The aim of this study is to validate a protocol for ultrasonographic hepatic fat assessment, by means of Magnetic Resonance Imaging technique (MRI) as gold standard.

To evaluate the effectiveness of optimization of CEA measurements after curative resection of stage II, III and IV colorectal carcinoma. The short-term effectiveness will be quantified in percentage of patients that are eligible for curative…
1) to assess the distensibility of carotid arteries and to relate the distensibility to the presence of atherosclerosis.2) to assess the image quality of motion free reconstructed images with ECG-gated CT scans.
The aim of this study is to compare the sensitivity of chromoendoscopy with Lugol*s solution with conventional white light video endoscopy in diagnosing esophageal dysplasia and cancer in patients with achalasia.
The goal of this study is to improve risk stratification and treatment allocation for medium and high risk neuroblastoma patients by real time quantitative (RQ)- PCR-minimal residual disease (MRD) testing.We have recently developed a panel of RQ-PCR…
To determine the additional value of NBI-ME to conventional endoscopy in the surveillance of patients with intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia, i.e. to evaluate whether the use of NBI-ME is superior to conventional endoscopy in the detection of…
To investigate the association between AGE, COPD severity and number of packyears.
The objective of this study is to prove that a single injection of PRP in the CEO decreases pain and duration of the condition in patients with chronic lateral epicondylitis compared to injection with lidocaine and corticosteroids.The specific…
In order to better understand sexual desire (e.g., fluctuations in desire, level of desire to distinct sexual stimuli varying in intensity, subtypes of desire disorder) it is important to examine methods for rapid detection of desire changes.…
To determine the feasiblity of the detection of disseminated tumor cells in bone marrow with RT-qPCR
Determine if additional pre-operative MRI decreases the incidence of irradical lumpectomies, changes surgical planning for BCT, reduces the incidence of re-operations, increases sensitivity and/or specificity, and is cost-effective.
The goal of this study is to answer the following questions:1. Is the chance of detecting mtDNA mutations in blood or urine sediment as high as in a (much more invasive) skeletal muscle biopsy sample?2. What is the prevalence of renal failure in…
We want to prove wheter the A1M/creatinine ratio in the urine is a good marker to diagnose an APN, or not. The study design has been made of a prospective observational cohort, controlled by a DMSA-scan.Our aim is to use the A1M/creatinine marker in…
