Research interests
As a member of Assoc.Prof. Priv.-Doz. Dr. Martin Funovics’s group, my current research is focused on cardiovascular imaging and the field of interventional radiology. Currently, my research is focused on imaging techniques of in-stent restenosis in peripheral and coronary artery disease. Further research interests include endovascular aortic repair, specifically in the assessment of available stentgrafts, the improvement of procedural aspects during implantation, such as the detection of endoleaks or graft failures, warranting careful follow-up and possibly, reintervention.
