Area of Science:

  • Medical imaging
  • Hematology
  • Musculoskeletal diseases

Background:

  • Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic blood disorder characterized by abnormal hemoglobin.
  • Vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) is a hallmark of SCD, leading to severe pain and tissue damage.
  • Sickle myonecrosis, a complication of SCD, involves muscle death due to prolonged VOC.
