Forskningsområde

DK: Min forskning fokuserer primært på at forbedre strålebehandling af kræftpatienter ved hjælp af en billedbaseret tilgang. Især forudsigelse af bivirkninger ved strålebehandling gennem avanceret billedanalyse og statistisk modellering har været en vigtig drivkraft for mig. Mine interesser ligger inden for dosisplanlægning, statistisk modellering og kvantitativ billedanalyse, herunder udvikling og klinisk brug af deform billedregistrering, cone beam CT og magnetisk resonans billeder.

UK: My research focuses primarily on image-based improvement of radiotherapy. In particular the prediction of side effects after radiotherapy by using advanced image-analysis and statistical modelling. I am interested in dose planning, statistical modelling and quantitative image-analysis, including development and clinical implementation of deformable image registration, cone beam CT and MRI.
