Randi Johansen Reidunsdatter

Randi Johansen Reidunsdatter is an Associate Professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine and Health and the Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging. Her research focuses on cancer survivorship, late effects of cancer treatments, and patient-reported outcomes, with an emphasis on breast and prostate cancer. She investigates health-related quality of life, psychosocial health, sexual health, and biological predictors of long-term health outcomes.

Her work combines diagnostic imaging and biological data with patient-reported metrics to identify risk factors for health decline, aiming to inform clinical interventions. Notable contributions include studies on pulmonary fibrosis post-radiotherapy, sexual health comparisons between cancer survivors and controls, and predictive modeling of quality of life using decision tree analyses.

Reidunsdatter has published extensively in journals such as Acta Oncologica, Cancers, and Frontiers in Oncology. Her research has addressed topics like hormonal biomarkers in breast cancer, iodinated contrast media effects on thyroid function, and peer review processes in academic publishing. She also contributes to educational initiatives, including developing online programs at NTNU and collaborating across professions to enhance medical education.

Her work highlights the importance of integrating patient-reported outcomes into clinical follow-up and has provided normative data for health questionnaires widely used in oncology research.
