What we do

In the Centre for Imaging Sciences, physicists, chemists, computer scientists, bioscientists and clinical researchers work together to develop new methods and apply cutting edge imaging and computational techniques for the understanding of disease, its management and treatment.

Via the University's Imaging Facilities we use state-of-the-art Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Positron Emission Tomography equipment (including a cyclotron and radiochemistry facilities) on patients, normal volunteers and pre-clinical models, and apply novel computer algorithms to understand and interpret medical imaging data.

The Centre's research interests combine expertise in the domains of:

  • physics
  • mathematics
  • computing
  • bioscience
  • clinical medicine
to develop new ideas and applications, leading to a high academic profile and also industrial collaborations and a number of successful spin-out companies.
