Profile
Dr. Galloway is Professor of both Biomedical Engineering and Neurological Surgery, and the Director of the Technology Center. He is a pioneer in the development of image-guided neurosurgery.
Research Specialty
Medical imaging and instrumentation
Research Description
In developing systems for interactive, image-guided surgery (IIGS), the Surgical Navigation Apparatus Research Laboratory (SNARL) is interested in every part of the process. This includes three-dimensional position tracking devices, the understanding of issues related to all forms of medical imaging, and appropriate intrasurgical display of surgical position and other information.
Current Projects Include:
1. Use of vascular imaging in image-guided surgery.
2. Incorporation of electrophysiology information, both stimulus response and passive monitoring, into IIGS.
3. Intraoperative imaging techniques such as endoscopy and intraoperative ultrasound.
4. New applications of IIGS techniques specifically in spinal surgery.
5. New applications of IIGS for the liver.
