Bio/Research

My own interests center on the physics, engineering and mathematics of medical imaging. While I have worked on many imaging modalities over the past decades, my current projects are focused on computed tomography, digital x-ray imaging, and hybrid multimodality systems. One major project currently underway is the development of Inverse Geometry Computed Tomography (IGCT), a new CT imaging architecture that should allow volumetric imaging with outstanding image quality and lower radiation dose. The work involves research into new components, sampling strategies, and image reconstruction methods, as well as methods to characterize the performance of imaging systems. We are also interested in energy-dependent CT imaging for tissue characterization and improved efficiency.
