Dr. Orit Lesman-Segev is a neuroradiologist at the diagnostic imaging division and a molecular brain imaging researcher at the Joseph Sagol Neuroscience Center at Sheba Medical Center.
Her goal is to use the in-vivo perspective that advanced neuroimaging biomarkers provide to better understand the pathophysiology underlying neurodegenerative disorders and to find pathophysiology-driven biomarkers for earlier, more accurate, and available detection and characterization of these disorders.
