H.J. (Rik) Vos (m) PhD, Erasmus MC, who is also attached to ImPhys.
Biomedical Engineering. After hospital intervention for opening of clogged cardiac arteries, one-third of patients show no restored blood perfusion in the heart wall. The researchers will build a new echographic system to monitor the perfusion in the heart wall during the intervention, which enables patient-specific treatment for better health afterwards.
