Dr Xiangyang Ju

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, UK

Dr. Ju is a leading researcher in 3D shape capture, modelling, and medical image analysis with over 30 years of experience. He pioneered high-resolution 3D photogrammetry for live animal and human scanning, developing an innovative shape conformation method (EPSRC GR/M47676/01) to establish dense correspondence for morphometric analysis. This work became core IP for a spin-out company commercializing 3D imaging technologies. Under a BBSRC grant (17/D1534), he collaborated with Silsoe Research Institute to refine 3D conformation techniques, correlating livestock growth scans with genotype and diet to predict meat/fat yields. His research also advanced 3D facial expression transfer (RGU RDI 2006) and multi-view 3D photogrammetry integration, improving dynamic shape reconstruction. Currently, Dr. Ju applies 3D/4D imaging to oral/maxillofacial surgery planning, OCT for intravascular/retinal diagnostics, and PET/CT analysis for lung cancer. His interdisciplinary work bridges computer graphics, biomedical engineering, and clinical practice, addressing real-world challenges in healthcare and industry. With numerous peer-reviewed publications and collaborations, he drives innovation at the intersection of imaging technology and computational analysis.
