Profile of:

Manouk De Hooge


I am a post-doc researcher at the Ghent University Hospital (UZ Gent) in Belgium. My research focus is on spondyloarthritis, psoriatic arthritis and imaging. In addition, I assess imaging reads for several clinical trials and cohort studies. In the Netherlands, at the Leiden University Medical Center I did my PhD training on imaging in axial spondyloarthritis under supervision of prof.dr. Désirée van der Heijde, dr. Floris van Gaalen and dr. Monique Reijnierse. Previously, I was the co-chair of Young ASAS (2021-2023). Currently, I am working at the Ghent University Hospital on imaging projects in SpA and PsA.
