Research Interest
The development and application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS) techniques for studying cancer. MRI provides a noninvasive method for quantitatively monitoring the growth and ablation of tumors, serving as an extremely valuable tool in the development of new cancer therapies. I am also developing novel imaging and spectroscopic methods to provide insights into the structure, morphology and vasculature of tumors and their effect on surrounding healthy tissue.
