Career Profile:
Professor Galloway is Group Leader of the MR Imaging Group.
His research interests include the use of in vivo Magnetic Resonance
to investigate the action of and test the efficacy of pharmaceutical
agents, novel applications for the use of Magnetic Resonance in physiological
studies and material sciences, and in pushing the boundaries of the
technology into new applications, and higher field strength. The use
of MR in pharmaceutical research has been productive, with significant
findings in the use of a new therapy for diabetes, the development
of a model for the aging brain and the development of methodology
for investigating cardiac function. Prof Galloway has also had involvement
in projects using MR to investigate water movement into concrete,
the mechanics of the knee and monitoring of knee injuries and the
assessment of training protocols for improving athletic endurance
and stamina.
In 2000, Prof Galloway obtained a Vice-Chancellor's Strategic Initiative
Grant and developed the Magnetic Resonance Technology Postgraduate
teaching programs, of which he is the Program Coordinator. The MRT
teaching program is a suite of postgraduate courses in magnetic resonance
technology, delivered nationally and internationally by flexible delivery,
and offered internally for the first time in 2006.
Research Interests:
» Design and implementation of new pulse sequences and
applications for
magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy
» Development of clinical magnetic resonance using nuclei other
than protons
» Development of ultra-high field clinical magnetic resonance
technology at
4Tesla and above
» Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the musculo-skeletal system, both
for under-
understanding of normal function, and of diseases
processes such as
osteoarthritis
» Magnetic resonance as a tool to study drug efficacy in neurology,
cardiology
and endocrinology
» Functional magnetic resonance imaging — a tool for observing
cognitive
processes
» MRI and MRS in sports medicine — studies of function,
adaptation and injury
» Image processing for statistical analysis and artefact correction
Teaching Interests:
» Magnetic Resonance Technology Postgraduate Teaching Program
—
Coordinator. This program is delivered by
flexible teaching methods to students
around
the world. It aims to teach radiographers and other health professionals
the underlying principles of magnetic resonance imaging,
with a view to
equipping them to get the most
out of the technology
» Short-course program
— provides radiologists and radiographer with the
opportunity to update their knowledge of the latest developments
in
magnetic resonance, with both theory and practical
