The aim of this study is to assess the prognostic value of sarcopenia and geriatric markers for survival and treatment tolerability and fluctuation of this value between several oncologic conditions. Secondly, we focus on the value of repeated CGA…
Determine the repeatability, inter and intra-observer variability of the *Scolibed*. Determine the variation in stiffness for healthy individuals and for scoliotic patients. Compare the results of healthy individuals and scoliotic patients.
Long term follow up is lacking in this database. A follow up study in which patients in the database are invited to a follow up exam and imaging would be a much more complete picture of the development of TLK in achondroplasten.
The main objective of this prospective randomized study is to examine the effect of low-dose radiotherapy on pain sensation in patients with early OA of the hip. Our hypothesis is that radiotherapy can achieve a pain-reducing effect of at least 20%…
