About
Clive Baldock’s research centers on medical imaging, with a particular focus on motion correction and tracking in positron emission tomography (PET) for awake animal studies. His major contributions lie in developing novel techniques to compensate for subject movement, which is critical for obtaining accurate imaging data from conscious, unrestrained rodents. His work on time domain pose filtering demonstrated how to reduce jitter in optical motion tracking using stereo geometry, improving the precision of marker-based motion correction in PET. Additionally, Baldock pioneered a SLAM-based markerless motion tracking approach, enabling motion-compensated brain PET in rodents without the need for physical markers—a significant advancement for translational research that allows animals to behave naturally during scans. While his most-cited papers have accumulated modest citation counts (8 and 5 citations respectively), their impact is notable for addressing a key technical challenge in preclinical imaging. Baldock’s innovations have helped pave the way for more accurate and humane neuroimaging studies, enhancing the potential for PET to investigate brain function and disease in awake, behaving animal models.
