Research Interests

Develop bioacoustic characterization methods and ultrasonic contrast-enhancing agents for advanced ultrasound imaging and its quantitative data analysis

  • Biomechanical modeling and ultrasonic characterization of ocular tissue for glaucoma risk screening and refractive surgery
  • Molecular imaging agents for enhanced tumor imaging with high resolution ultrasound
  • Non-destructive mechanical characterization of tissue structures for disease early detection and non-invasive diagnosis
