About Dr. Tinsu Pan
Dr. Pan received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1991, and post-doctoral training in Nuclear Medicine at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center, Worcester, Massachusetts, from 1991 to 1993. He continued on as a research faculty on quantification of SPECT until 1996 when he joined the Applied Science Laboratory of GE Healthcare, Waukesha, Wisconsin as a senior scientist on CT. He became a faculty in the Department of Imaging Physics at the University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas in 2004, is a professor in the Department of Imaging Physics and holds a joint faculty appointment in the Department of Radiation Physics at the University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Dr. Pan designed the cardiac CT and invented the 4D-CT on the GE LightSpeed CT during his tenure with GE. His design of 4D-CT is the most used 4D-CT in Radiation Oncology around the world. There are over 10,000 patients scanned with his 4D-CT at MD Anderson Cancer Center. He also invented average CT to help register the CT and PET images in the thorax,. The average CT has been applied in patient care at the University of Texas Medical School by Dr. K. Lance Gould for over 10,000 patients since 2006. He has also developed the world's first data-driven gated CT to mitigate the misregistration and motion artifacts on PET/CT. He has published 12 book chapters, 12 patents and over 139 peer-reviewed articles. Dr. Pan is certified by the ABR and ABSNM.
