Professor of Cancer Imaging癌症影像学教授
👥Biography 个人简介
Anwar Padhani is a leading cancer imaging researcher specializing in whole body MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging, and functional MRI techniques for cancer staging and treatment monitoring. He developed clinical protocols for whole body MRI for staging of high-risk prostate cancer and myeloma, demonstrating superiority over bone scintigraphy and CT for bone metastasis assessment. Padhani has contributed to validation of DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) as a biomarker of cellularity and treatment response, and has investigated DCE-MRI for quantification of tumor perfusion and vascular characteristics. He leads the RECIP (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors by Imaging Phenotype) working group.
🧪Research Fields 研究领域
🎓Key Contributions 主要贡献
Whole Body MRI for Cancer Staging
Validated whole body MRI as superior to conventional staging methods for bone metastasis assessment in prostate cancer and myeloma, establishing imaging protocols now incorporated in national and European guidelines.
DWI as Treatment Response Biomarker
Validated diffusion weighted imaging as a functional biomarker of tumor cellularity and early treatment response, providing quantitative imaging tools for response assessment before anatomic changes occur.
