With the patient needs in focus we collaborate with other authorities, companies and society. The localization at Campus Flemingsberg enables a close partnership between ̽����ѡ, Karolinska University Hospital Huddinge and the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) with its new resources in the Technology and Health building. At the hospital association to e.g. departments of clinical physiology, radiology, ̽����ѡ radiation physics & nuclear medicine and ̽����ѡ technology/bio̽����ѡ engineering makes available patients, images, equipment and further infrastructures for research, education and teaching.

Together the Research Group of Functional Imaging and Technology, the hospital, the county council of Stockholm and “the Stockholm Medical Image Laboratory and Education” (SMILE), develop and handle images as well as courses for and by ̽����ѡ image and technology interested clinicians and scientists with a diverse background. Involvement in the Jonasson's Center for Medical Imaging at the KTH campus south, potentiates multidisciplinary research teams and offers access to advanced clinical and preclinical imaging equipment, a 3D theater etc. Available at the research group are high end computers, simulation software and phantoms as well as an ultrasound laboratory with wet lab facilities where ultrasound equipment and contrast agents is manufactured and evaluated.

Through clinical needs and innovations, we want to develop healthcare. Patients treatment and prioritization are dependent on adequate diagnostics, where provocations, triggering the patient's symptoms, are often included. With education across borders and research for safe implementation of ̽����ѡ technology innovations, we strive for evidence-based use, registration and knowledge support, promoting also artificial intelligence.

The research group's basic and clinical research involves most imaging modalities and image sciences, but also sensors, bioimpedance, e-health and IT.

We teach clinically and scientifically in areas of ̽����ѡ imaging, hospital physics and ̽����ѡ technology/bio̽����ѡ engineering at both the basic, specialist and postgraduate level at the ̽����ѡ, the Karolinska University Hospital, the Stockholm University and at the Royal institute of technology (KTH).
