Attila Schwarcz MD, PhD

Dr. Attila Schwarcz conducts magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) research in animal experiments and he also examined the characteristics of cerebral edema in patients. He has been the first in Hungary to establish functional MRI examinations to monitor the functioning of the human brain in patients with brain tumors or epilepsy. He has confirmed with MRI that a mild skull injury could also cause tissue damage to the brain. The research carried out has not only provided scientific results but has also been translated into everyday neurosurgical practice, which improves the patients' chances of recovery.
