Therapy monitoring

Therapy monitoring is an important emerging application of imaging modalities. These and other current research topics include:

near-infrared imaging of brain tissue;
near-infrared spectroscopy for diagnosing peripheral vascular disease;
electrical impedance spectroscopy for radiation therapy monitoring;
magnetic resonance elastography for detecting brain or prostate lesions; to follow the progression of diabetic damage in the foot; and to answer basic questions of wave propagation in tissue;
microwave imaging spectroscopy for hyperthermia therapy monitoring, brain imaging, and detection of early-stage osteoporosis;
electrical impedance tomography for monitoring traumatic brain injury progression and therapy.
