Radiological Sciences

Aim & Expertise 

Radiological Sciences aim to develop quantitative imaging biomarkers for improved understanding, diagnosis and treatment guidance. We facilitate and support collaborative research involving advanced imaging, training students and research fellows to build future world-class talent in academic radiology and medical physics.  Our team includes clinicians, physicists, technicians and computer experts.

Research issues  

Our research includes work in stroke, pain and neurodegeneration, as well as healthy brain function, using a variety of neuroimaging techniques. Diffusion, perfusion, functional and structural imaging are available in our state of the art Medical Imaging Unit. Imaging physics and analysis supports these projects and we are currently undertaking a long term project to create a repository of imaging data which will be available to researchers all over the world.

The debilitating effects of stroke, chronic pain and dementia are felt by millions of people the world over and their prevalence is increasing. Our objective is to translate our on-going pre-clinical research in neuroimaging to the clinic, improving diagnosis and treatment of these diseases.
