The primary hypothesis of our study is that volumetric monitoring will allow for more effective and targeted fluid administration compared to pressure (PAC) monitoring, thereby allowing the attending physician to better optimize fluid infusion…
To identify possible in vivo biochemical and biological markers related to aneurysm wall strength.
In this pilot study, our aim is to validate the PAP test by assessing the diagnostic accuracy of PAP for a number of paternally derived fetal characteristics in normal and red cell alloimmunized pregnancies.
The present research project is directed at delivering further evidence for the mechanisms underlying generalized and symptom-specific sensitization in patients with chronic pain and itching. For this purpose, 4 experiments are set up to provide…
Referring to the previous CMO approved research proposal (2004/222), in this study the effects of a short-term stressor and a stress-reducing intervention on neuroendocrine, immune and self-reported indicators of stress reactivity in patients with…
The primary objective is to state the modal anatomical position of the spinal cord within the surrounding thecal tissue for volunteers lying laterally recumbent, with MRI imaging perpendicular to the line of the of the spinal canal. We hypothesize…
To investigate whether the use of this instrument can make the determination of competency more objective and better.
The expectation is that FDG-PET demonstrates or excludes infectious complications earlier than current practice, resulting in more efficient use of other diagnostic methods and therapy. Besides early detection and treatment of invasive fungal…

To test the value of preoperatively performed urodynamics with regard to outcome of surgery for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and to examine whether not performing urodynamics preoperatively is more cost effective than performing urodynamics…
To evaluate the effectiveness of the cognitive based behavioral psychotherapy as given by the VALK Foundation by means of psychophysiological measures.
The general purpose of the present study is to test whether people with schizophrenia perform differently when assessing working-memory tasks measuring different components. A better knowledge of working memory impaiment in schizophrenia could lead…
Uspio enhanced MRI (MRL) potentially has the ability to show all lymph nodes and hence provide information on metastasis in all nodes, this is in contrast with SLNB which only provides information on 1 (or a few) lymph node(s). With MRL metastases…
Primary objectives:1. To determine and compare diagnostic accuracy of CMR, MDCT calcium score and MDCT coronary angiography for the detection of significant CAD, using invasive coronary angiography as reference standard2. To develop a screening…
The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility and psychometric properties of the WSC. To be able to determine the validity of this screening questionnaire, other, well validated screening questionnaires as well as a diagnostic interview…
