His research focus is on ovarian cancer screening and factors that affect screening accuracy and performance.

 

Research Interest

  • Breast, Colorectal, Prostate, Cervical and Ovarian Cancer

Current Research Goals of the Screening Program

  • To prospectively evaluate the false positive (FP) rate of the screening algorithm for distinguishing benign ovarian structures from ovarian malignancies.
  • To assess the degree to which serial transvaginal ultrasonography identifies the fallopian tubes and changes in size and structure of the fallopian tubes.
  • To assess the degree to which serial transvaginal ultrasonography revises a single ultrasound by comparisons of subsequent ultrasonography to the initial abnormal sonography and defining the rate of resolution.
  • To assess the effect of serial transvaginal ultrasonography on the discovery of early stage disease regionally and state-wide and to determine if improvements in disease specific mortality occur as evidenced by lower deaths due to ovarian cancer in regions where screening participation is highest.
  • To assess the cost-effectiveness of ovarian screening and to examine risk of medical complications arising in the screening program.
  • To examine perceptions of well-being due to participation in ovarian cancer screening.
  • To determine the co-factors that contribute to successful annual ultrasound screening for ovarian cancer in a asymptomatic population
