معرفی
Shahnaz Akil is a Researcher at Lund University's Department of Clinical Physiology, affiliated with the Lund Cardiac MR Group. Her research focuses on improving diagnostic accuracy for chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) through advanced imaging techniques such as myocardial perfusion imaging and cardiac MRI. She evaluates the clinical management of CCS patients to reduce unnecessary interventions and healthcare costs. Key areas include stress-induced myocardial ischemia assessment, long-term outcomes of revascularization therapies, and the role of comorbidities in patient prognosis.
- Uses nuclear medicine and MRI to study myocardial perfusion and ischemia
- Investigates sex-specific and comorbidity-related factors in diagnostic outcomes
- Advocates for cost-effective, patient-tailored cardiac care strategies
Her recent work highlights the prognostic value of exercise ECG paired with SPECT imaging and explores PET-based myocardial blood flow quantification. No scientific awards are listed here.
