Adjunct Associate Professor, Docent

My research is grounded in neuroradiology with focus on imaging of the brain in multidisciplinary projects.

Presentation

My research is grounded in neuroradiology with a focus on imaging of the brain in multidisciplinary projects. Using different techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography, we investigate different pathological conditions of the brain in an adult and pediatric population. Some research areas covered are brain tumors and fatigue.
