Trosolwg

Dr Smith is a state registered Clinical Scientist specialising in Nuclear Medicine and Positron Emission Tomography.  Dr Smith joined PETIC in 2017 to take up the post of Head of PET Physics.

In 2016, Dr Smith completed a PhD with the University of Surrey his thesis on "Motion Correction in Medical Imaging" developed novel algorithms using artifical intelligence to enhance the quantitative and qualitative accuracy of medical images obsfucated my respiratory motion.

Dr Smith's research focus remains in developing AI solutions to enhance PET image accuracy and the implementation of novel state of the art technology to PET development
