معرفی
Zoltan Szabo is an Adjunct Assistant Professor at Linköping University's Faculty of Medicine, affiliated with the Department of Health, Medicine and Care (HMV) and the Department of Diagnostics and Specialist Medicine (DISP). His research spans myocardial metabolism, augmented reality applications in cardiac surgery, and biomarker studies.
His primary research interests include:
- Myocardial metabolism and protection during cardiac surgery
- Augmented Reality for visualizing heart surface temperature during surgery
- Ischemia-reperfusion injury and preconditioning
- Development of artificial heart pumps with pulsatile flow
- Biomarker dynamics in cardiac surgery
- Acute kidney injury following cardiac procedures
Dr. Szabo pioneered the first global description of diabetic heart metabolism during coronary artery surgery and the application of high-dose glucose-insulin-potassium for myocardial protection. His augmented reality work represents a groundbreaking surgical application of this technology.
His recent publications focus on biomarker dynamics, coronary revascularization outcomes in kidney disease patients, and artificial heart technology, demonstrating his interdisciplinary approach bridging clinical practice, engineering, and basic science.
He collaborates extensively with researchers from Linköping University's Pharmacology Department, Thoracic Surgery, CMIV, and international partners in Szeged (Hungary) and Memphis (USA).
Dr. Szabo is involved in key research projects:
- Development of artificial heart pumps with pulsatile flow
- Augmented Reality for real-time heart surface temperature visualization
- Ischemic preconditioning studies
- Kidney oxygenation research during heart-lung machine operation
- Levosimendan's protective effects on the heart
