My research focuses on developing advanced ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging technologies for cancer and vascular diagnostics. I work at the interface of imaging physics, biomedical engineering, and translational medicine, with a particular interest in developing methods that can overcome current limitations in early detection and treatment guidance.
My research currently focuses on three main areas:
- Photoacoustic spectroscopy and imaging: developing multiwavelength approaches for cancer tissue characterization and circulating tumor cell (CTC) detection, with applications in early cancer detection and more personalized treatment.
- Ultrasound imaging of blood flow: developing ultrasound-based flow imaging methods, including echocardiographic particle image velocimetry (echoPIV), to study complex blood flow in vascular structures and investigate vascular disease.
- Acoustic metamaterials for medical ultrasound: designing high-frequency acoustic metamaterials to enhance ultrasound transmission through highly reflective and lossy tissues, with the aim of improving imaging and intervention in challenging anatomical regions such as calcified arteries.
I have a background in computational and experimental ultrasound imaging, including compressive ultrasound imaging using randomized acquisition techniques and multimodal imaging of breast cancer.
