Doctor Kenichiro Otsuka

Osaka Metropolitan University Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka (Japan)

Member of:

European Society of Cardiology

Dr. Otsuka graduated from Osaka City University School of Medicine, and then received his PhD from the Osaka City University Graduate School of Medicine. During his post-doctoral period, Dr. Otsuka worked on the field of biomedical imaging under the supervision of Professor Brett Bouma at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School. Dr. Otsuka is currently working on intracoronary polarization-sensitive optical frequency domain imaging (PS-OFDI) project, which enables quantification of polarization properties of coronary atherosclerotic plaques.
