11.1. Hobbies Photography,      Hiking

11.2. Academic interests and service delivery Initial involvement in Nuclear Medicine - and in particular in Nuclear Cardiology - led to an interest and involvement in image quantification as well as the use of personal computers for acquisition of cardiac data.      Direct contact with the clinical personnel resulted in a good clinical background and subsequent support in developing as well as implementing new diagnostic procedures.     

Clinical support in the Diagnostic Radiology department is directed towards support of the quality control programs of the department as well as advice on teleradiology systems and MR systems.

Computer skills include the standard MS Office software, QPro, Lotus, Adobe Photoshop and others.      Programming languages include Fortran, Basic and Visual Basic with special application in the field of image processing and databases.      Other computer skills include a working knowledge of Unix, Novell as well as general networking principles.

Interest in general computer applications led to involvement in the implementation of a new hospital information system and supporting infrastructure at Universitas, National and Pelonomi Hospitals.
