Prof. Dr. Dimitrios Karampinos

Prof. Karampinos�� research focuses on the development of new methods for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). His research group develops MRI acquisition, image reconstruction and signal modeling techniques in order to generate new quantitative MRI biomarkers and to increase the robustness and effectiveness of quantitative MRI biomarkers. The developed methods are being translated into clinical studies for improving the diagnosis, the therapy monitoring, and the understanding of disease pathophysiology in musculoskeletal disorders, in metabolic diseases and in body oncology.

Prof. Karampinos studied engineering at the National Technical University of Athens, Greece. In 2008, he obtained his PhD with a focus on biomedical engineering from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Between 2009 and 2012, he was a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging in University of California, San Francisco. He joined the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology of TUM in 2012 as a Junior Group Leader and he was appointed to the TUM School of Medicine in 2019
