Pulmonary hypertension is a fatal condition in many cases. A prerequisite for better treatment is an increased understanding of pathophysiology and lung microanatomy. Until now, no satisfactory 3D imaging methods have been available. Further, the goal is to create automated measurement of the thickening of lung vessels. The methods used
A major challenge in the war against cancer is to find ways to diagnose and treat the disease at an early stage when the cancer is still curable. This calls for sensitive and effective diagnostic tools that can sense the cellular state early in the process. Low cost tools will
The purpose of the study is to be able to, using an early diagnosis of hypomineralized molars provide the best preventative treatment to minimize the risk of caries or later acute symptoms as well as more complicated treatments. Through this study, dentist and dental hygienists can work more towards preventing
We are approaching an ´post-antibiotic era´ where antibiotics will have much decreased efficacy, and antiseptics are not desirable due to side-effects, resistance, or toxicity. Therefore, the new drugs developed by in2cure AB are of high relevance and clinical need. The global wound care market is estimated is forecasted at $26-30

The purpose of the project is to develop a functional smartphone application that helps strawberry growers 1) to identify harmful organisms and 2) to share this information with other growers, researchers and the public. The advantage is that growers can carry out pest control measures with a higher target precision,
Neck-related ill health is one of the fastest growing physical problems in society today. We use digital tools increasingly, which in many aspects is good, but unfortunately our neck is not made for the strain we expose it to. To correct posture, we need to train the muscles and their
Stroke is one of the major diseases affecting some 27,000 people in Sweden each year and 17 million worldwide. Of the patients who survive a stroke, approximately one third experience lifelong loss of functionality that among other things affects mobility, speech, thought, and memory. Several biological mechanisms that inhibit the
Diagnosis and follow-up of lung diseases can be improved by measuring carbon dioxide and flow under normal breathing, so-called volumetric capnography. With volumetric capnography differences can be discovered in the small respiratory tracts which are the first to be affected in cases of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, COPD. Spirometry is
People with Type 1 diabetes lack the hormone insulin. Insulin is vital to the body’s cells for the supply of energy and the progression of metabolic processes. Insulin must therefore be administered daily through multiple injections or an insulin pump. Self-regulating pumps, so-called artificial pancreas, are not available yet. In
