Research and Practice Interests

I have been active in biomedical ultrasound research since 1993, and currently lead the UC Biomedical Acoustics Laboratory, investigating applications of ultrasound in thermal ablation, as well as other therapeutic and diagnostic applications. My research experience and expertise includes ultrasound image guidance for thermal ablation, passive cavitation detection and imaging, ultrasound-mediated drug delivery, therapeutic ultrasound for treatment of cancer, simulation of ultrasound propagation in inhomogeneous tissue, modeling of bio-heat transfer in thermal therapy, image analysis to map mechanical displacement and strain in soft tissues, tissue characterization, inverse scattering, modeling and analysis of radiation from ultrasound transducers, and design of minimally-invasive medical devices.
