Neuroimaging

Motol University Hospital

Scientific background

My main area of expertise is the position of clinical engineer at FN Motol, where I focus on the field of biomedical engineering. I am currently continuing my postgraduate studies at the Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, where I have been working on the development and validation of methods for evaluating the content of myelin in the brain using MRI and postprocessing. My work has been published in the Physiological Research Journal. During my master’s studies, I focused on evaluating the pathological transition between white and gray matter in magnetic resonance images of patients with epilepsy. I also have experience with neurobiofeedback methods and teach the subject of Healthcare Technology Management.
