Jacek Wojtczak, MD

Dr. Jacek Wojtczak’s research interests are focused on craniofacial phenotyping/upper airway imaging and biophysical mechanisms of lung B-lines. He is using new ultrasonic imaging techniques including compression elastography and acoustic radiation force imaging and he has also developed a new imaging technique - nanoparticle imaging. This technique allows quantification and monitoring of local anesthetic spread in tissues. He is collaborating with Dr. David Cattano (UT Houston) on the ultrasonic imaging of airway devices in situ and with Dr. Pavel Andruszkiewicz (University of Warsaw) on the prediction of unanticipated difficult airway and emergency airway procedures including ultrasound-guided
cricothyrotomy.
