Research Areas

Professor Szabo’s research goals are overcoming present limitations in imaging the body using ultrasound and other imaging modalities and finding new ways of extracting diagnostically useful information about tissue structure, health and function noninvasively. His work involves the following: multi-modal imaging and beamforming, signal processing, ultrasound-induced bioeffects, simulation and measurement of viscoelastic tissue properties, geophysical imaging, elastography and telemedicine. Recent interests are brain imaging, neuromodulation, nonlinear properties of tissues and materials, elastography, rheological tissue and acoustic propagation models, airway mechanics and spinal injuries. Dr. Szabo is the author of Diagnostic Ultrasound Imaging: Inside Out and co-author of Essentials of Ultrasound Imaging, He is also a convenor of a working group of the International Electrotechnical Commission developing standards on high intensity therapeutic ultrasound and focusing.
