Brani Vidakovic

Professor, Wallace H. Coulter Dept. of Biomedical Engineering

Brani Vidakovic and his group are interested in statistical analysis of signatures of cancer assessed via scaling attributes in medical signals and images. For example, backgrounds of mammograms, modeled as a 2-D self-similar random field define scaling indices useful in breast cancer diagnostics.  Also, the scaling within protein-mass spectra signals or within volatile organic
components in human breath are additional related areas of Vidakovic's interest that could be discriminatory of cancer presence.
