Dr. Huda in collaboration with UCLA is working on one-dimensional and two-dimensional magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the human brain. The research involves investigating the levels of cerebral metabolites within certain parts of the brain in psychiatric abnormalities and metabolic encephalopathies.
Dr. Njeh’s research interests are in the physical measurement of bone, especially the use of dual X-ray absorptiometry and quantitative ultrasound. He is interested in the application of these methods to the management of bone diseases such as osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis, and in all aspect of quality assurance in the use of DXA and QUS. In radiation therapy physics, Dr. Njeh is involved in image guided radiation therapy, especially ways of minimizing motion during radiation therapy.
Dr. Tenney’s research interests involve nuclear medicine instrumentation. He has investigated the use of pinhole collimators made of gold, platinum, and tungsten for ultra-high resolution SPECT imaging of small animals for medical research. He has also studied energy integration as an alternative to photon counting in small-animal radioatracer imaging.
Dr. Dunia is the Chief Medical Physicist at the Fresno Cancer Center. His research interests involve intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and tomotherapy. He teaches the Radiation Oncology Physics class at Fresno State.
