Aim of the present study is to investigate if a combination of a radioactive and fluorescent tracer can increase the sensitivity and specificity of the SLNM technique in colon and rectal cancer by utilizing the radioactive component for preoperative…
Primary Objective:-Evaluate tumour detection sensitivity and specificity with the following image enhancement modalities:1 *narrow-band imaging*, (NBI)2 *near-infrared indocyanin green imaging*, (ICG)3 *5-aminolevulinic acid fluorescent imaging*, (5…
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…
This study aims at evaluating whether indocyanin green (ICG) enhanced intra-operative near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging is as good as or even better than the standard technique (technetium-99 labeled colloid and Patent Blue) in detecting…
The primary objective of the study is to determine concentration of circulation cytokines na administration of LPS in the presence of iron sucrose (Venofer®), Deferasirox (Exjade®) of placebo.
The primary objective of the study is to determine the effect of atazanavir-induced hyperbilirubinemia on systemic activation of the innate immune response induced by human endotoxemia.Secondary objectives are:- To determine if the vascular…
Main study:1. Does blockade of the angiotensin II AT1-receptor improve the insulin-induced microvascular effects in hypertensive patients.2. Does blockade of the angiotensin II AT1-receptor impair the insulin-induced mi-crovascular effects in…
Ergonomics and function of the imaging system - the NIRF imaging system should not interfere with the standard Sentinel Lymph Node mapping procedure and used safely by the surgeon while detection of ICG takes place. Duration: 1,5 hour clinical…
We aim to study the vasoactive effects of Acetylcholine (NO dependent) in hypertensive patients and normotensive participants. Second, the correlation between the vasoreactivity of Acetylcholine and Angiotensin II will be studied. Third, the…
Primary objective: The primary objective of the study is to determine the effect of oral dipyridamole treatment on the innate immune response induced by a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge. Various pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines will be…
Aim of the study is to develop an intraoperative technique for SLN mapping in colon cancer which is suitably in daily practice in colon surgery in an average hospital setting.
