Fifteen years
around one wave.

A continuous arc through medical ultrasound — from FPGA front-ends, through robotic HIFU therapy, into commercial USCT systems and PhD-level reconstruction.

What I build, what I publish.

A bias toward problems where physics, signal processing and clinical constraints meet.

Core focus

USCT Image reconstruction Ultrasound physics HIFU therapy FPGA front-end k-Wave simulation MATLAB · Python Inverse problems

At Lily MedTech, contributed to the development and 2021 commercial release of COCOLY, a ring-array USCT scanner for breast imaging. Led an internal R&D project on attenuation-map estimation from reflection-only echoes (patent filed, JP & EP).

PhD work proposed a dictionary-based reconstruction that delivers high-resolution USCT echo images under reduced data acquisition — a path toward faster, cheaper scans.
