Haemodynamic investigation of flow diverter stents for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. This project will explore the engineering of a flow diverter, an endovascular device for the treatment of brain aneurysms. The project will determine the optimal design of new types of flow diverters, which in turn could improve the effectiveness of treatments, thus reducing the associated costs of cerebral haemorrhage and stroke.
Real-time cardiac magnetic resonance imaging: a compressed-sensing framework incorporating sensor design and multidimensional signal reconstruction. Conventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technology is fundamentally constrained by slow scan speeds. Taking a new approach to cardiac imaging - which integrates MRI hardware design with a novel dynamic imaging method based on compressed sensing - this project enables faster and more accurate dynamic imaging for the diagnosis of heart disease.
