معرفی
Dr. Vanja Luković is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer and Software Engineering at the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Čačak, University of Kragujevac, Serbia. With over two decades of academic experience, she has established herself as a prominent researcher in the intersection of computer engineering and biomedical applications, particularly in the development of innovative diagnostic systems for spinal deformities.
Her educational background includes a Doctorate in Technical Sciences (2015) with a dissertation on "Ontologically based information system for diagnosing and monitoring spinal deformities," a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering (2007) focusing on visualization systems, and a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with specialization in Industrial Energy (2000).
Dr. Luković's research spans multiple domains including biomedical informatics, ontology development for medical applications, digital circuit design, and educational technology. Her work demonstrates a consistent focus on applying computer engineering principles to solve real-world medical challenges, particularly in the area of scoliosis diagnosis and monitoring. She has pioneered the development of the ScolioMedIS system, a web-based information system for non-invasive 3D visualization and monitoring of spinal deformities.
Her publication record reveals a strong trajectory in both medical informatics and computer engineering, with recent work expanding into AI applications for medical diagnostics, data storage optimization, and educational technology. The evolution of her research shows a natural progression from foundational work in ontology development to more applied research in medical diagnostics and educational tools.
