Jan Engvall

Visiting Professor

My research concerns person-centered cardiac investigations of manifest and subclinical cardiovascular disease. My goal is more exact methods that are less demanding on the participation of patients. My methods could be described as “cardiac imaging”

Presentation

My most important investigative tool is the population based Scapis Linkoping cohort. The Swedish Cardiopulmonary BioImage Study was initiated to study the changing pattern of cardiovascular risk factors and the expression of subclinical and overt cardiopulmonary disease in a population sample.

Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients with Type 2-diabetes - CARDIPP

The aim is to identify risk markers for cardiovascular disease to facilitate early and individually adjusted interventions in middle-aged men and women with Type 2-diabetes.

Cardiovascular imaging and modeling - CIM

CIM:s tvärvetenskapliga forskningskluster syftar till att öka förståelsen för det kardiovaskulära systemet i hälsa och sjukdom genom utveckling och tillämpning av nya bildbaserade metoder för bedömning av funktion, hemodynamik och vävnadens karaktär.
