Name & Title

Neil A. Segal, MD, MS

Current Positions

The University of Kansas Medical Center

Dr. George Varghese Professor of Rehabilitation Medicine

Medical Director of Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation

Director of Clinical Research, Rehabilitation Medicine

Director, Clinical Osteoarthritis Research Program

 

The University of Iowa College of Public Health

Adjunct Professor, Epidemiology

Research Interests

Risk factors for development and worsening osteoarthritis

Weight-bearing joint imaging

Rehabilitation interventions for musculoskeletal disease

CT in Research

Using diagnostic imaging to identify factors which predict who will develop osteoarthritis structural disease and symptoms as well as evaluating preventive interventions through clinical trials. The long-term goals of my research program are to reduce risk for disablement due to osteoarthritis and other lower limb musculoskeletal problems.

Statement on OCTA Mission

Advance understanding of how CT can be used to expedite identification or risk for and treatment of osteoarthritis
