  • Augmented Reality in Neurosurgery 
    van Doormaal, Jesse A.M.; van Doormaal, Tristan P.C. (Springer, 2024-11-11)
    Augmented Reality (AR) involves superimposing digital content onto the real environment. AR has evolved into a viable tool in neurosurgery, enhancing intraoperative navigation, medical education and surgical training by ...
  • Vascular-Urinary Fistula 
    Lock, Tycho M.T.W.; Kamphorst, Kyara; Moll, Frans L.; Van den Bergh, Roderick C.N. (Springer Singapore, 2023)
    A vascular-urinary fistula is defined as a confirmed abnormal passageway between any vascular structure and any part of the urinary tract. Arterio-ureteral fistula is the most common type. Risk factors for developing this ...
  • A tolerogenic dendritic cell–based therapy targeting heat shock protein–specific regulatory T cells in rheumatoid arthritis 
    Stoppelenburg, Arie J.; Van Eden, Willem; Van Laar, Jacob M.; Broere, Femke (Elsevier, 2023)
    Current treatments for RA are merely symptomatic, cause unwanted side effects (steroids), involve monoclonal antibodies that inactivate the immune system, and produce serious side effects and at great cost. We have developed ...
  • Variability of Electrocardiographic Imaging within and between Leadsets 
    Stoks, Job; Van Rees, Bianca D.; Groeneveld, Sanne A.; Schipaanboord, Diantha J.M.; Blom, Lennart; Hassink, Rutger J.; Cluitmans, Matthijs J.M.; Peeters, Ralf; Volders, Paul G.A. (IEEE, 2020-09-13)
    The variability of the inverse solution provided by electrocardiographic imaging (ECGI) is largely unknown when comparing different leadsets or (similar) beats. In four patients, we compared activation times (ATs), recovery ...
  • Sudden Cardiac Death in the Young: Post-mortem Investigation and Cardiogenetic Evaluation of Victims and Their Relatives 
    Blom, Lennart J.; Baas, Annette F.; Vink, Aryan; Hassink, Rutger J. (Springer, 2020-01-01)
    Sudden cardiac death in the young is a rare and devastating event. A dedicated and focused post-mortem investigation is essential in detecting potential inherited cardiac diseases in sudden death victims, which facilitates ...
