Summary of Research

Dr. Golestani's primary research interest is developing MRI acquisition and processing method and their applications in cancer treatment. More specifically, the role of functional MRI in oncology (diffusion, perfusion, spectroscopy). In addition, I am also interested in neuroimaging and studying brain physiology, function, and connectivity using fMRI and DTI.
