Accurate Diagnosis of High-Risk Pulmonary Nodules Using a Non-Invasive Epigenetic Biomarker Test Open
Background/Objectives: Accurate non-invasive tests to improve early detection and diagnosis of lung cancer are urgently needed. However, no regulatory-approved blood tests are available for this purpose. We aimed to improve pulmonary nodul…

Accurate diagnosis of high-risk pulmonary nodules using a non-invasive epigenetic biomarker test Open
Background Accurate non-invasive tests to improve the early detection and diagnosis of lung cancer are urgently needed, given that large tumors may metastasize or be resistant to treatment. However, no regulatory-approved blood tests are a…

Clinical use of [18F]fluoro-ethyl-L-tyrosine PET co-registered with MRI for localizing prolactinoma remnants Open
Purpose To assess the utility of [ 18 F]fluoroethyl-L-tyrosine PET co-registered with magnetic resonance imaging ([ 18 F]FET-PET/MRI CR ) in patients with difficult-to-localize prolactinoma to inform clinical decision-making and (surgical)…

Atrial septal defect in adults is associated with airway hyperresponsiveness Open
This study is the first to report a high prevalence of airway hyperresponsiveness in a cohort of unrepaired adult ASD patients, and confirms the association between asthma-like symptoms and ASD in adults. Attention to symptoms and pulmonar…

Evaluation of a novel stent technology : The nitinol self-apposing stent Open
This thesis focuses on a novel stent technology: the nitinol self-apposing STENTYS stent. This nitinol stent has the ability to appose itself to variable vessel diameters which might overcome some limitations of stiff tubular balloon-expan…

Evaluation of the MiStent sustained sirolimus eluting biodegradable polymer coated stent for the treatment of coronary artery disease: does uniform sustained abluminal drug release result in earlier strut coverage and better safety profile? Open
Treatment of coronary artery disease has made strides over the last decades. Development of drug eluting stents (DES), coated with a polymer layer and an anti-proliferative drug to reduce neointimal hyperplasia, has reduced the incidence o…

Decrease in lipid rich plaque during percutaneous coronary intervention: reality or artefact? An observational study using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Open
Background: Lipid rich plaque (LRP) content has been shown to decrease after high-pressure balloon-expandable stent placement. LRPs are quantified by the lipid core burden index (LCBI) on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). We aim to evalua…
