William Paul Segars
Associate Professor in Radiology
Our current research involves the use of computer-generated phantoms and simulation
techniques to investigate and optimize medical imaging systems and methods. Medical
imaging simulation involves virtual experiments carried out entirely on the computer
using computational models for the patients as well as the imaging devices. Simulation
is a powerful tool for characterizing, evaluating, and optimizing medical imaging
systems. A vital aspect of simulation is to have realistic models of the subje
