Julio Carballido-Gamio, PhD

Our research focuses on developing and implementing novel image analysis algorithms for the identification and quantification of relevant features in medical images for musculoskeletal assessments. We work with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), quantitative computed tomography (QCT), high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Current studies with our collaborators involve assessments of bone marrow fat, estimated bone strength, and/or bone macro- and micro-structure in subjects with long-standing type 1 diabetes, in response to exercise and/or DHEA therapy in older women with bone loss, in people living with HIV, in response to bone-strengthening exercises and/or drugs in older adults losing weight, and in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and clonal hematopoiesis.

Our work has been featured as cover images in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research (JBMR) and in Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery (QIMS).
