Main
research topics:
1.
The application of electrotherapeutic methods in patients
rehabilitation after spinal cord injury (especially in patients
with spasticity)
2. The study of objective and physical measurement methods to
estimate the progress of patients rehabilitation after spinal
cord injury and orthopaedic disorders
3. The examination of scientific principles of the application
and therapeutical efficacy of various (specially physical)
methods in new branches of medicine, as enhancement of healing
and regeneration of the tissue defects
4. Modern (informatical) measurement methods for objective
evaluation of the tissue defect healing degree
5. The biophysical examination procedures applied in diagnostics
and the study of biophysical models
