Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Magnetic resonance imaging
  • Stroke

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Nystagmus, Neuroscience, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Vestibulo–ocular reflex and Saccadic masking. His Nystagmus research integrates issues from Anesthesia and Vestibular system. Specifically, his work in Neuroscience is concerned with the study of Eye movement.

Richard Leigh has researched Physical medicine and rehabilitation in several fields, including Progressive supranuclear palsy, Supranuclear ophthalmoplegia, Communication and Head. His study explores the link between Vestibulo–ocular reflex and topics such as Visual system that cross with problems in Electrooculography and Vestibule. His Saccadic masking study combines topics in areas such as Superior colliculus and Motor control.

His most cited work include:

  • Using saccades as a research tool in the clinical neurosciences (299 citations)
  • Performance of the human vestibuloocular reflex during locomotion. (213 citations)
  • Abnormal ocular motor control in Huntington's disease (187 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Stroke, Eye movement, Magnetic resonance imaging, Internal medicine and Cardiology. His work deals with themes such as Radiology and Lesion, Surgery, which intersect with Stroke. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Nystagmus and Vestibular system.

Richard Leigh studied Nystagmus and Anesthesia that intersect with Visual acuity. His study in Magnetic resonance imaging is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Tissue plasminogen activator, Perfusion scanning and Pathology. His Cardiology research includes elements of Thrombolysis and Diffusion MRI.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stroke (24.86%)
  • Eye movement (20.90%)
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (19.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Stroke (24.86%)
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (19.77%)
  • Internal medicine (17.51%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Richard Leigh mainly investigates Stroke, Magnetic resonance imaging, Internal medicine, Cardiology and Thrombolysis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Lesion, Randomized controlled trial, Surgery and Clinical trial. His research in Magnetic resonance imaging intersects with topics in Acute stroke and Perfusion, Perfusion scanning.

In general Cardiology study, his work on Reperfusion therapy and Brain ischemia often relates to the realm of Extended time, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His study looks at the intersection of Thrombolysis and topics like Ischemic stroke with Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Angiogenesis, Cognitive impairment and Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance. Richard Leigh interconnects Dementia, Set point and Vestibular system in the investigation of issues within Physical medicine and rehabilitation.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Imaging the physiological evolution of the ischemic penumbra in acute ischemic stroke (46 citations)
  • Improving the detection sensitivity of pH-weighted amide proton transfer MRI in acute stroke patients using extrapolated semisolid magnetization transfer reference signals. (34 citations)
  • Blood-brain barrier leakage increases with small vessel disease in acute ischemic stroke. (31 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Stroke
  • Magnetic resonance imaging

His primary areas of study are Magnetic resonance imaging, Stroke, Internal medicine, Cardiology and Hyperintensity. His research integrates issues of Anesthesia, Acute stroke, Nuclear magnetic resonance and Pathology in his study of Magnetic resonance imaging. His Stroke research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Prospective cohort study, Surgery, Perfusion and Disease.

His Perfusion research includes themes of Magnetization transfer, Depolarization, Ischemia, Hemodynamics and Neuroscience. The Logistic regression, Thrombolysis, Brain ischemia and Systemic inflammation research Richard Leigh does as part of his general Internal medicine study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Stroke volume, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His work on Reperfusion therapy as part of general Cardiology research is often related to Monocyte count, thus linking different fields of science.
