My career goal is to develop innovative functional and molecular imaging methodology for improved sensitivity for diagnosis and early detection of cancer. For example, hyperpolarization is technology at the MD Anderson that keeps it a leading worldwide institution in in vivo metabolic studies. In the bigger picture, the information that is gained from MRI sets the stage to depict the evolutionary forces at play. Imaging depicts some tumors as being highly heterogenous. This variation is likely the result of subregions that experience different physiological characteristics, such as levels of hypoxia and acidosis. Habitat imaging is a way of framing the heterogenous aspects of the tumor microenvironment in evolutionary terms and may assist in devising strategies for more effective therapy and/or to control progression. The end goal is to devise robust early indicators of tumor evolutionary status using MR.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Affiliations  Research Consortia Gulf Coast Cluster for Translational Imaging  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Assistant Professor Imaging Physics UT MD Anderson Cancer Center
