Emerging CT Technology to Advance Clinical Care at MGB
Mass General Brigham is leading the way in clinical implementation of the imaging technology photon-counting computer tomography (PCCT), which offers significantly improved spatial, contrast and sometimes temporal resolution with respect to conventional CT systems.
Biography
Dr. Raj Gupta is an associate radiologist in the Divisions of Neuroradiology and Cardiovascular Imaging and director of the Advanced X-ray Imaging Sciences (AXIS) Center. His research interests include phase-contrast x-ray imaging computed tomography hardware, and traumatic brain injuries.
Dr. Gupta is a staff neuroradiologist and ER radiologist in the Department of Radiology at Massachusetts General Hospital, an Associate Professor of radiology at the Harvard Medical School, and a lecturer in Mechanical Engineering at MIT. He is interested in both research and clinical practice of radiology, currently devoting approximately 50% of his time to each of these activities. He also directs the Advanced X-ray Imaging Sciences (AXIS) Center at Mass General. His research is currently focused on three main topics: 1) development and clinical applications of novel X-ray imaging modalities including phase contrast imaging, ultra-high resolution computed tomography (CT), and dual-energy CT; 2) development of low-cost devices for imaging and image-guided interventions; and 3) study of traumatic brain injury (TBI) using advanced, quantitative MRI techniques.
