Summary statement of interests
and accomplishments
Areas of interest include medical imaging,
nuclear medicine imaging, single photon emission computed tomography
(SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), medical image processing,
image reconstruction from projections, medical image evaluation
using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Over
the past five years, Dr. Gilland has been principal investigator
on two grants totaling $925,000 and co-principal investigator
on a research contract totaling $400,000. He has published 40
peer-reviewed journal articles and 73 scientific abstracts.
