Research interests
My interests are primarily in scientific image analysis and visualisation, mainly medical but also in other fields, with a particular emphasis on developing engineering techniques for specific clinical problems tailored to the physical properties of the imaging system. I have been involved in developing Cortical Bone Mapping: the accurate assessment of bone and joints in Computed Tomography (CT) data, and RMAR: a technique to reduce artefacts due to metal in CT. I also work on morphological methods to reduce general image noise, in particular the Bitonic Filter. Previous work has included freehand 3D ultrasound data, ultrasound elastography (stiffness measurement), and Regularised Marching Tetrahedra for accurate surface extraction from sampled data. I support multiple software platforms for implementing all these technologies, most notably Stradview for the visualisation and analysis of 3D imaging data.
Strategic themes
Bioengineering
All my activities are in this theme, within which I am topic leader for the sub-theme of biomedical engineering.
Other positions
- Founding member of the Engineering for Clinical Practice initiative between the Engineering Department and the Clinical School (2008-)
