Novel MRI Techniques

The Centre for Medical Imaging has a major focus on the clinical translation of novel imaging technologies, allowing new approaches to assess microstructure, function and metabolism of cancer in-vivo.

Cancer Imaging

Cancer Imaging

The Centre for Medical Imaging uses a range of MRI technologies, artificial intelligence, and advanced imaging techniques for the detection of disease and diagnosis of prostate and colorectal cancers.

Inflammation Imaging

Inflammation Imaging

At the Centre for Medical Imaging, we use advanced imaging techniques, notably MRI and ultrasound, to investigate inflammation. This includes bowel inflammation and rheumatology.

Medical Statistics

Medical Statistics

We are interested in diagnostic accuracy, prognostic research, and systematic reviews. We look at the design of studies and conduct systematic reviews of how reporting of these models can be improved.

Interventional Radiology
