Details:
Dr. Radu Ion Badea is professor of Medical Imaging, leader of the Medical Imaging Department in the "Iuliu Hatieganu" University of Medicine and Pharmacy and chief of the Ultrasound Department in the 3rd Medical Clinic, Institute of Gastroenterology and Hepatology “Octavian Fodor”, Cluj Napoca, Romania. He graduated the high school of Medicine in 1981, became specialist in internal medicine (1988) and gastroenterology (1991) and licensed to practice and teach ultrasonography in 1992. In 1997 he built in Cluj Napoca the first educational project focused on teaching ultrasound - "Ultrasound Training Center" affiliated to the Jefferson Ultrasound Institute. He was involved in the elaboration of the national curriculum for ultrasonography in general practice. He is founding member of the Romanian Society of Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (1997) and became president of this society in 2010. The activity is focused on daily practice of ultrasound (as a clinician and ultrasound expert), teaching ultrasound (for medical students, residents and doctors), and research. He is member the Senate of the University and Director of the Doctoral School. He is conducting PhD research since 2002. Dr. R. Badea is member of several national and international professional societies, member in 9 editorial boards of medical journals (including European Journal of Ultrasound). He is author of more than 63 chapters in different medical books and published more than 120 original papers in journals indexed in IBD or ISI. He participated to several national and international congresses and had conferences as invited speaker in Paris, New York, Florence, Krakow, Budapest, Pula, Bologna, Rome, Hong Kong, Warsaw, Krakow, and Stuttgart. He is involved in an educational project of his university concerning new techniques of teaching by means ultrasound simulators. In 2012 he was invited to became member of the Academy of the Scientists in Romania (http://www.aos.ro) and of the Academy of Medical Sciences.
