Research
Founder and director of MIIRCAM, the Medical Imaging Informatics Research Centre at McMaster, leading research projects on radiation risk, validation of technology and applications of Artificial Intelligence to medical imaging. Chair of Canada Safe Imaging, part of the international radiation safety campaigns. For the last 20 years, my research has centred on the electronic communication and workflow integration of medical images, and he developed the Canadian standards on lossy compression. His current research interests are about Artificial Intelligence for aggregation of imaging and medical data. He has been a co-founder of IHE Canada (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) and is a member of the IHE section of the Medical Informatics committee at RSNA. He is past co-Chair of the IHE International Radiology Planning Committee. Organizer of MIIT, the Medical Imaging Informatics and Teleradiology conference in Canada for the past 16 years. Teaching leadership in healthcare using the LEADS framework. Senior member of the IEEE and a Fellow of the Canadian Association of Radiologists.
