IMPORTANCE, AIMS AND POSSIBLE OUTCOME OF RESEARCH
Ischaemic stroke is the third leading cause of death among the Hungarian population.
The presence of recurring spreading depolarisations (SD) and impaired neurovascular
coupling under ischemic conditions significantly decreases the perfusion of the injured
area resulting in neuronal cell death and spreading of the infarcted lesion. The aim of our
research is to restore the function of neurovascular coupling and to prevent the damage
caused by SDs using a new, non-invasive, targeted drug delivery system, thus providing a
new therapeutic opportunity in stroke treatment
AMBITIONS AND CAREER GOALS
During my medical carreer I would like to work in the field of radiology (neuroradiology)
as this field serves as the basis of almost every clinical diagnosis and treatment and also
provides me an opportunity to invest my aquired knowledge both in research and patient
care. In addition, radiology is a rapidly and dynamically developing area, where it is always
a requirement to follow and learn new techniques.
