Research Interests

The target of my project is validation and evaluation of novel biomarkers in atherosclerosis by means of DCE-MRI and Ultrasound Imaging. The final pathway is to identify and validate imaging parameters in order to differentiate between stable and vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques in genetically modified mouse models. I am also interested in MRI-CEST pH imaging for the evaluation of tumor acidosis.
