Medical Professionals

The following is a collection of WWW pages of medical professionals involved in research and application of 3D ultrasound (in alphabetic order):

	Dr. Bernard Benoit and Dr. Henri Bourgoin are experts on medical, and especially obstetric, applications of 3D ultrasound. They have gathered a lot of data using the Kretz Voluson equipment. Have a look at their pages for stunning images and video sequences.
	Dr. Stefano Ciatti is a radiologist running a private practice in Prato near Florence, Italy. He uses a Kretz Combison 530D to image the liver, biliary tract, pancreas, adrenals, kidneys, breasts and the neonatal brain including color Doppler. He has a web page with image slides he prepared from a recent presentation.
	Dr. Peter Cooperberg and his colleagues at St. Paul's Hospital Department of Radiology (Vancouver, BC, Canada) have compiled a list of interesting medical imaging cases as well as a number of fascinating 3D ultrasound imaging examples. These are just two of a number of collections which include ultrasound artifacts and sonograms of fetal orcas (killer whale)!
	Prof. Thomas Nelson and Dr. Dolores Pretorius head the 3D Ultrasound Imaging Group at University of California in San Diego. They are experts on the use of 3D ultrasound technology in medicine, especially in obstetrics.
	Dr. Odd Gilja is a member of the Gastroenterology division of the Medical department A of the University of Bergen, Norway. Dr. Gilia is working on the a project "Patients with functional dyspepsia studied by three-dimensional ultrasound".
