معرفی
Matilda Larsson is a Professor at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, specializing in medical image processing and quantitative ultrasound technologies. Her research focuses on developing non-invasive methods for assessing tissue deformation and elasticity, particularly in cardiovascular and obstetric contexts. She holds a Doctor of Philosophy in Technology and Health from KTH (2010).
Her work emphasizes advancing ultrasound-based techniques for evaluating atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability and fetal brain deformation during medical procedures. Key innovations include shear wave elastography for arterial stiffness analysis and multi-modal imaging setups for transversely isotropic tissues.
Main research areas include cardiovascular imaging, tissue elasticity analysis, and biomechanical modeling. Recent publications address topics such as cardiac-locomotor coupling during daily activities and ex-vivo validation of arterial strain metrics. Current studies explore clinical applications of these technologies in stroke prevention and maternal-fetal health monitoring.
Her contributions bridge biomedical engineering and clinical practice, aiming to improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment strategies through novel imaging algorithms and patient-specific simulations.
