Research Overview

The Computational Biomedical Imaging Group (CBIG) pursues research on the development of new algorithms for the reconstruction and post-processing of medical and biological images. Active research areas include image reconstruction, image analysis and quantification. Research efforts are taking place at two complementary levels:

  • The development of mathematical tools and algorithms for imaging
  • Applied projects in collaboration with clinical researchers

The main application areas include magnetic resonance imaging, near infrared spectroscopic imaging, and microscopy. The laboratory is located in the Rochester Center for Brain Imaging, which houses a whole body 3T Siemens Trio Scanner and several high field magnets.
