Radiology Research Laboratory

The Radiology Research Laboratory conducts research in radiological diagnostics and treatment.

Tasks

Research and development of new diagnostic and treatment methods in radiology of oncology and other major diseases,
Raising of public awareness on the latest developments in the field of radiology, provision of information on the latest research outcomes
Provide results that can be used with the purpose to improve diagnostics and patient care
Involvement in professional and undergraduate radiology education
Assistance in developing guidelines and pilot projects for health technologies, etc.

Clinical research is conducted in collaboration with Pauls Stradiņš Clinical University Hospital's and Rīga East Clinical University Hospital's radiologists, oncologists, surgeons, urologists, neurologists ans RSU Nuclear medicine clinic, medical agency ARS, A medical Ltd., and Arbor Ltd.

In its projects, the Lab cooperates closely with collegues from various countries in Europe (Italy, Germany, United Kingdom, Norway). The Lab's employees are involved in educational and research projects of the European Radiology Society and the World and European Federations of Ultrasound societies in Medicine and Biology.
