About

Khushboo Munir is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of medical imaging, artificial intelligence, and robotics. Her primary research areas include dental image processing, autonomous robotic systems, and computer-aided diagnostics. Dr. Munir’s most impactful contribution is the development of a dental image enhancement network designed for the early diagnosis of oral diseases, which tackles critical challenges such as non-uniform brightness and low contrast in captured images—problems that have long hindered intelligent robotics and expert system applications in dentistry. This work has already garnered 17 citations, underscoring its significance in improving diagnostic accuracy while reducing patient exposure to harmful ionizing radiation. In her more recent work, Dr. Munir has authored a comprehensive survey on autonomous robotic ultrasound scanning systems, exploring semi-autonomous and teleoperated solutions that address operator variability and physical strain in traditional ultrasound imaging. Her research is notable for bridging the gap between advanced computational methods and practical clinical applications, promising safer, more consistent, and accessible diagnostic tools. Dr. Munir’s contributions are shaping the future of intelligent medical robotics and non-invasive diagnostics.
