• I work permanently on MR scanner MAGNETOM Avanto 1,5T by SIEMENS (some 1.500 exams per year) and perform CT examinations with multislice scanners SOMATOM Volume Zoom by SIEMENS and Light Speed RT by GE. I do all kinds of routine MR/CT studies (all body parts) as well as more sophisticated like MR perfusion, diffusion, spectroscopy, CT angiographies, 3D reconstructions, biopsies, etc. Also I do general X-rays and participate in radiotherapy treatment planning in cancer patients
