Overview

Romain Pauwels was affiliated with Ghent University Hospital in Belgium and contributed extensively to the fields of Medicine and Dentistry, with a focus on Oral Surgery and Radiology. Their research spanned multiple interrelated topics including dental radiography and imaging, advanced X-ray and CT imaging, radiation dose and imaging, medical imaging techniques and applications, artificial intelligence in cancer detection, radiology practices and education, and endodontics and root canal treatments.

Their notable papers included:

  • Cone beam computed tomography in dentomaxillofacial radiology: a two-decade overview (2020) published in Dentomaxillofacial Radiology
  • Artificial intelligence for detection of periapical lesions on intraoral radiographs: Comparison between convolutional neural networks and human observers (2021) published in Oral Surgery Oral Medicine Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology
  • Attitude of Brazilian dentists and dental students regarding the future role of artificial intelligence in oral radiology: a multicenter survey (2020) published in Dentomaxillofacial Radiology
  • A brief introduction to concepts and applications of artificial intelligence in dental imaging (2020) published in Oral Radiology
  • European consensus on patient contact shielding (2021) published in Insights into Imaging

Romain Pauwels frequently collaborated with other researchers, including Reinhilde Jacobs, Karla de Faria Vasconcelos, Matheus L. Oliveira, Jardel Francisco Mazzi-Chaves, and Manoel Damião Sousa-Neto.

Their work appeared predominantly in several scientific venues, such as:

  • Dentomaxillofacial Radiology
  • arXiv (Cornell University)
  • Scientific Reports
  • Physica Medica
  • Clinical Oral Investigations

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

For those interested in Immunology, pursuing related nursing degrees online offers flexible options to enhance your career. Many students begin with online BSN programs for non nurses, which provide an accelerated track to enter nursing without prior experience. These programs prepare graduates to advance into specialized roles more quickly.

Once you have a BSN, accelerated options are available. Some students choose a nurse practitioner accelerated program to fast-track their path to becoming a nurse practitioner, combining rigorous coursework with clinical experience in a shortened timeframe.

For working nurses aiming to specialize in acute care, the fnp to acnp bridge program online offers a convenient way to transition from a family nurse practitioner role to acute care nurse practitioner without interrupting their careers.

It’s also worth exploring the easiest accelerated nursing programs if you want a less competitive and more accessible pathway into nursing. These programs can open doors to diverse healthcare settings, including immunology-focused clinical and research roles.
