Abdomen and Thoracic Imaging

Dr. Jasjit Suri has spent last 25 years in biomedical imaging sciences and biomedical devices and his last 14 years has been dedicated in the field of medical imaging modalities and its fusion. He has published hundreds technical papers in body imaging, relating to modalities like MR, CT, X-ray, PET, SPECT, Elastography and Molecular Imaging. While working more than one decade in industries like: Siemens Research, Philips Research and Fischer Research Divisions in the capacity of Scientist and Senior Director of R & D's, Dr. Suri has submitted more than 15 US Patents with Washington DC USPTO, covering in the area of medical imaging modalities. Dr. Suri has also edited several collaborative books in the area of body imaging (such as Cardiology, Neurology, Pathology, Mammography, Angiography, Vascular, Atherosclerosis/Plaque Imaging, Mammography/Breast Imaging and Molecular imaging) covering Medical Image Segmentation, image and volume registration, and physics of medical imaging modalities and emerging applications of medical imaging technologies including medical devices/imaging. Most of his books have been published with Springer.
