E.Y.K. Ng

Nanyang Technological University, Singapore

E. Y. K. Ng obtained his Ph.D. degree from Cambridge University, UK. He has worked in the adjunctive breast cancer diagnosis research since 1995. The adjunct National University Hospital, Singapore, scientist has a special interest on IR physics and technology, in particular on application of IR to biomedical sciences. As the coinventor of patent on multiple analytical software classifier programs to identify the different stages of breast cancer development using thermal data, he further explores the use of IR in the field of ophthalmology for early detection of health abnormality. He collaborates with the National Health Group Hospitals, in using the biofield diagnostic system as a better objective assessment tool for complimentary breast cancer detection. Ng has more than 165 SCI-IF journal articles and 80 conference papers and 7 books published including Cardiac Pumping and Perfusion Engineering, Imaging and Modelling of Human Eye, Distributed Diagnosis and Home Healthcare, Performance Evaluation in Breast Imaging, Tumor Detection and Analysis, Compressor Instability with Integral Methods, and recently Computational Analysis of Human Eye with Applications and Diagnostic and Therapeutic Breast Cancer Imaging. He has supervised more than 6 researchers as well as over 25 M.S. and Ph.D.'s students. Ng is the Editor-in-Chief for the SCI Journal of Mechanics in Medicine and Biology for dissemination of original research in all fields of mechanics in medicine and biology since 2000; Editor-in-Chief for the recently formed Journal of Medical Imaging and Health Informatics (JMIHI); an Associate Editor of 8 referred international journals like the Chinese Journal of Medicine, The Open Medical Informatics Journal, Journal of Biomedical Science and Engineering, Journal of Healthcare Engineering, and World Journal of Clinical Oncology; and a Guest Editor for the International Journal of Computer Applications in Technology as well as Journal of Medical Systems. His main area of research is thermal imaging, human physiology, biomedical engineering, and computational fluid dynamics.
