Research Interests:

• Computed Tomography
• Flat-Panel Computed Tomography
• Micro-Computed Tomography (for laboratory animals)
• Computed Tomography radiation dose
  

My personal research interests include the implementation of emerging computed tomographic technology within a challenging clinical environment, the use of computed tomographic imaging for screening purposes, the application of flat-panel computed tomography to animal and human subjects, and the development of improved tools to describe radiation exposure from computed tomographic examinations.

A tutorial in my laboratory would be focused on a well-defined research project. The student would conduct some portion of a project, such as provide an image analysis result, or assist with the development of a new CT image acquisition protocol, or design a quality control program for micro-CT scanners, or assess the robustness of a commercial CT software package for automatic x-ray tube current modulation.
