Bio


My research focuses on the development and clinical translation of noninvasive modalities for early detection and treatment of cancer and cardiovascular disease, based in particular on the use of medical ultrasound. My long-term objective is to make available to the clinic methods to 1) classify cancerous tissue quantitatively and non-invasively reducing the need for biopsies; 2) use biomarker maps to guide the targeted delivery of therapeutic agents in a localized way; and 3) image the drug delivery process for close-loop verification.
