Professor John Fleming

John is a clinical scientist working on the use of medical imaging to improve the diagnosis and treatment of patients with respiratory disease.

In a career spanning 50 years, John’s focus has been on developing medical imaging methods for diagnosing and treating patients. He has published over 150 papers on these studies.

As part of the Department of Medical Physics, his particular interest has been in nuclear medicine. He advanced techniques for forming images, and for analysing and interpreting these to gain clinically useful information for diagnosis and disease management.

More recently he has focussed mainly on the application of medical imaging in respiratory disease, where he had the role of Scientific Lead of the Respiratory Imaging Group of the NIHR Southampton Biomedical Research Centre.

Now retired from his full time role, John is still active in publishing in the scientific literature and reviewing papers for a number of medical journals.
