Jonathan M. Rubin, MD/PhD (he/him/his)

Professor Emeritus of Radiology
University of Michigan
Ann Arbor, United States

Jonathan M. Rubin is currently an Emeritus Professor of Radiology at the University of Michigan. He had been either the co-Director or Director of Ultrasound in the Radiology Department for 30 years. He has over 240 peer reviewed publications and 16 patents. He has been Deputy Editor for Physics for Academic Radiology and Associate Editor for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology and for the Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine. He has received the Lawrence Mack Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society of Radiologist in Ultrasound, the Joseph H. Holmes Clinical Pioneer Award from the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, the Innovations Award from the University of Michigan Medical School, the University of Michigan Medical School Distinguished Alumni Award, and he is a Distinguished Investigator in the Academy of Radiology Research. He has been PI on multiple grants from industry and NIH. The Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Michigan has recently named a Collegiate Professorship in his honor.

His research has focused on the basic physics and clinical applications of medical ultrasound. Some of his achievements include the development and clinical introduction of power Doppler. He was also instrumental in introducing ultrasound into the neurosurgical operating room. His most recent interests relate to blood volume flow measurements using ultrasound and the use of ultrasound for assessing placental function. The volume flow method employs 3D ultrasound along with Gauss’s divergence theorem to quantify true blood flow. The most recent implementation of this method permits total brain blood flow measurements in neonates. The placental measurement technique analyzes umbilical venous Doppler spectra in order to determine the placenta’s response to the maternal and fetal arterial input flows. Both the maternal and fetal inputs are assessed simultaneously. This method provides a means for evaluating placental function and structure in new ways.
