Computing
Since 2001 we have conducted research in collaboration with Professor Stephen McKenna and Professor Ian Ricketts from the School of Computing which has focused in developing the acquisition and intelligent interpretation of data from radiographic images. Studies were developed to assess osteoporosis in patients with fractures and to expand the uses of image processing into other areas of clinical diagnosis such as monitoring of hip replacements, assessment and quantification of knee osteoarthritis and evaluation of shoulder reconstruction after shoulder replacements.
