Marlies Goorden's research focuses on improving imaging geometries in SPECT and PET CT through theoretical analysis, including the development of analytical models and full scanner simulations using Monte Carlo ray tracing methods. She is highly interested in the development and improvement of image reconstruction techniques, aiming to achieve and develop accurate photon transport models that can be incorporated into statistical iterative image reconstruction, with proposed accelerated image reconstruction algorithms. Additionally, she has worked on the optimization of gamma ray detectors using novel detection algorithms and scintillating materials in new combinations of sensors. She holds a Master's degree in Applied Physics from Delft University of Technology and a PhD in theoretical solid state physics from Leiden University, with post-doctoral research experience at the University of Geneva and University Medical Center Utrecht/Delft University of Technology. Notable publications include high-resolution tomography for positron emitters and improved SPECT reconstruction techniques.
