Ophthalmology and Glaucoma

Clinical research in normal tension glaucoma focuses on visual function, optic nerve perfusion, and the role of systemic treatment alongside existing eye care.

  • Intraocular pressure and optic nerve circulation
  • Visual field assessment
  • Retinal nerve fibre layer imaging

Interest extends to refractory disease management and functional outcomes in patients with low-pressure glaucoma.

Radiology and Acute Abdomen

Imaging research addresses diagnostic strategies for emergency abdominal and body CT in people with reduced renal function, with attention to contrast use in clinically urgent settings.

  • Computed tomography for acute abdominal pain
  • Contrast-enhanced imaging in impaired kidney function
  • Diagnostic accuracy in emergency care

The work is centred on balancing imaging needs with kidney-related safety considerations.

Oncology and Pancreatic Cancer

Trials in pancreatic cancer examine thromboprophylaxis during neoadjuvant treatment, with interest in thromboembolic risk, vascular events, and survival-related outcomes.

  • Thromboembolism prevention
  • Neoadjuvant cancer therapy
  • Vascular complications in pancreatic malignancy

Research activity also includes links between clot prevention and disease course in a high-risk cancer population.
