Dr. Thandi Buthelezi

Thandi Buthelezi is a radiology researcher whose work focuses on diagnostic imaging in resource-constrained healthcare settings, with particular attention to neuroradiology and paediatric thoracic imaging. Affiliated with South African academic institutions and contributing to regional radiology journals, her scholarship addresses clinically relevant imaging challenges in both tertiary and public hospital contexts.

Her research explores the diagnostic performance of imaging modalities such as CT angiography in detecting ruptured intracranial aneurysms, highlighting practical limitations and implications for patient care where advanced imaging access may be restricted. She has also examined chest radiographic patterns in children with pulmonary tuberculosis, contributing to understanding imaging presentations in HIV-prevalent populations.

Additional publications include detailed case reports on rare anatomical variants, reflecting strengths in cross-sectional imaging interpretation and clinically grounded radiological analysis. Based on the limited available publications at present, her work demonstrates a consistent commitment to improving diagnostic accuracy and contextualising imaging findings within real-world clinical environments.
