Diagnostic Imaging & Interventional Radiology research

The Radiology Department delivers diagnostic services and interventional procedures using state-of-the-art facilities.

Our research focuses on improving patient care through evidence based medicine and working with the industry to facilitate and expedite innovation into clinical practice. Main areas of research are focal tumour ablation with irreversible electroporation (IRE), the effectiveness of balloon angioplasty in multiple sclerosis patients and utility of contrast-enhanced ultrasound for the detection of synovitis in haemophilia patients.

Imaging is essential for diagnosis, monitoring of therapy and performing procedures. Consequently, we conduct a broad range of internally-initiated, collaborative and commercial research. A collaboration with Health Informatics has a yielded a computational platform for radiology image retrieval and analysis, providing a tool to facilitate future imaging research projects.
