About
Simon Veldhoen is a radiologist and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of advanced musculoskeletal imaging and surgical follow-up care. His primary research focuses on improving post-operative imaging of the appendicular skeleton, particularly in patients with orthopedic hardware. Veldhoen’s major contribution lies in demonstrating how gantry-free cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), combined with iterative metal artefact reduction, can overcome the longstanding challenge of imaging near metal implants—offering a practical, low-dose alternative to conventional CT and radiography. His 2022 study on this topic, which has already garnered 6 citations, provides a compelling proof-of-concept for using multipurpose X-ray scanners in routine surgical follow-up, where artefact-free visualization of bone and adjacent soft tissue is critical. By validating this technique, Veldhoen is helping to close a gap in post-surgical imaging, potentially reducing the need for more expensive or higher-radiation modalities. His work is particularly relevant for orthopedic surgeons and radiologists seeking efficient, high-quality imaging solutions in the outpatient setting.
