Brain Imaging Research: Brain Image Analysis has been a primary focus of research while at UAB. Research has been performed in conjunction with Neurologists and Neurosurgeons who specialize in a variety of brain diseases. Most of this work has been associated with research into Parkinson's Disease. Many different types of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) modalities were used, including Structural, Functional, and Diffusion Tensor Imaging. A wide variety of software packages were used, along with custom-written software to analyze brain images and extract statistical measures related to disease diagnosis and progression. Ph.D. research was conducted in association with this research. Various modalities of MRI Images were analyzed using custom software written and executed on UAB's supercomputer, Cheaha. The software analyzed directional, morphological changes in brain structures. Structural imaging was used to generate non-linear deformation vector fields, which were merged with Diffusion Tensor Imaging to measure directional atrophy. Extensive statistical processing was performed to measure the significance of measured changes. Other Research: Stethoscope sensitivity and frequency response in association with respiratory therapists. Optical vehicle location for Alabama Department of Transportation to assist with the measurement of bridge structural integrity. |
