The primary treatment for breast cancer is surgery, which sometimes does not achieve complete removal of all the tumour and therefore requires a further operation. This is then often followed by chemotherapy, radiotherapy and endocrine treatment. The aim of this...

Background & Motivation: Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy (AC) is a prevalent form of structural heart disease which carries with a high risk of sudden cardiac death due to ventricular arrhythmias. Accurately identifying at risk patients for life-saving implanted...

Scientific basis / background: Stablishing the causes (i.e. aetiology) of cardiovascular conditions such as hypertension is key for their effective and efficient management. We at KCL have generated initial promising evidence that the heart remodels its 3D anatomy in...

Background: The brain is inherently an electrically conductive organ, but standard imaging modalities are not well equipped to measure its electrical properties (EPs). This is particularly relevant for studying neurodevelopment – pre-clinical studies show that...
