Dr. Thomas Wischgoll joined the department in Sept. 2005. Previously, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of California at Irvine. His research area include Scientific Visualization, Biomedical Imaging, Flow Visualization. He has developed methods for extraction quantitative measurements from volumetric data sets, such as Computed Tomography (CT), which allow for further analysis and diagnostics of diseases, such as diffuse coronary heart disease. His research resulted in over 40 publications. Other research accomplishments include the completion of the topological analysis for vector fields by including the topological feature of closed streamlines as well as visualization techniques for vascular structures.
