Assoc. Prof. Dr. Matija Milanič is a distinguished researcher focused on the development of advanced imaging methods that enhance the understanding of biological tissues and their properties in both medical and other interdisciplinary fields. His research primarily involves multi-level imaging, which plays a crucial role in advancing diagnostic processes in oncology, dermatology, and rheumatology, where it is used for precise disease detection and monitoring.
In addition to his medical applications of imaging, he is also involved in interdisciplinary research that bridges fundamental physics with its practical applications in clinical and industrial settings. He actively participates in several international research projects, which extend beyond healthcare and also cover the development of optical methods in food science, such as spectroscopy, spectral imaging, and optical coherence tomography (OCT). This broad scope of his research allows him to contribute to both the understanding of fundamental physical principles and their concrete applications in improving quality of life.
He also plays a key pedagogical role, leading and developing the Medical Physics study program at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, University of Ljubljana. As the program coordinator, he is dedicated to educating the next generation of professionals who will shape the future of medical physics and its impact on healthcare.
His work reflects a deep commitment to advancing our understanding and progress in the field where physics, cutting-edge technologies, and clinical applications converge to improve health and quality of life.
