Medical and biomedical imaging play a critical role across nearly all areas of biomedical engineering. Advancing technologies to visualize and model conditions such as diseases, injuries, and even normal tissue is fundamental to achieving precise diagnoses. Biomedical imaging encompasses the field of radiology, which employs various imaging techniques, including X-ray radiography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and\u00a0 ultrasound, and thermography. Our program currently focuses on the application of high-frequency ultrasound for preclinical models of various diseases.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
