Understanding somatosensory deficits and the potential of targeted therapy to improve upper limb function in children with unilateral cerebral palsy: a behavioral and neurological approach KU Leuven
Unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP) is a lifelong disorder resulting from a lesion in the developing brain. Besides motor impairments, up to 90% of these children also have somatosensory deficits in the upper limb. As somatosensory information is of utmost importance for coordinated upper limb movements and motor learning, somatosensory deficits may hamper effective use of the impaired upper limb in bimanual daily life activities. However, an ...

Optimisation of the production of 225Ac/213Bi generators at CERN-MEDICIS for targeted alpha therapy treatment KU Leuven
Radioisotopes are frequently used nowadays for medical imaging, and increasingly for cancer treatment. Through a wide variety of decay properties, different techniques can be applied, such as PET, SPECT, or targeted treatment with alpha or beta radiation. At the CERN-MEDICIS facility, it is planned to improve access to medical radioisotopes for research in order to facilitate the study of new promising molecule-radioisotope combinations. One ...
