Att balansera på två hjul : en etnologisk undersökning av cykelkurser för vuxna inom projektet Frihet på cykel

MRI can contribute in all steps of the radiotherapy workflow from diagnosis, staging, and target definition to treatment follow-up. Of particular interest is the ability of MRI to provide a wide range of functional measures. The complexity of MRI as an imaging modali

Association Between Earliest Amyloid Uptake and Functional Connectivity in Cognitively Unimpaired Elderly

Alterations in cognitive performance have been noted in nondemented subjects with elevated accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) fibrils. However, it is not yet understood whether brain function is already influenced by Aβ deposition during the very earliest stages of the disease. We therefore investigated associations between [18F]Flutemetamol PET, resting-state functional connectivity, gray and white m
