Biography

Laura Fanea’s expertise is in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the central nervous system. During the last 16 years, Laura created new pathways for improving medical imaging. Her research in ocular MRI includes the quantitative evaluation of experimental autoimmune uveitis and visualization of the main rat eye structures, but also of the macrophages infiltrated in the diseased retina. She continued her studies with clinical ocular MRI at 1 T, introducing the concept of automated ocular medical imaging through multiparameters calculated on images acquired from normal and diabetic human eyes. Recently, Laura introduced a complex quantitative scale for automated ocular imaging using multiparametric MRI at 3 T and acquiring high quality images of the normal human eyes showing three layers in the region of the retina/choroid complex. Her future plans focus on the development of a reference multiparametric chart of the human eye for automated medical diagnosis in Ophthalmology using MRI
