Machine-translated · View original
The lab analyzes medical images with deep learning to support diagnosis.

AboutAbout the lab
A lab for medical AI and medical image analysis.
The Medical Image Analysis Lab studies medical AI and medical image analysis.
The lab applies artificial intelligence techniques to medical images and works on developing technologies that support diagnosis.
Its research themes cover many parts of the body and many types of examinations, including the brain, heart, chest, skeleton, and nuclear medicine.
The lab also works on teaching and developing MATLAB programming, which underpins medical image analysis.
Key terms
- Medical image
- An image of the inside of the body taken for diagnosing disease, such as an X-ray radiograph, CT, or MRI
- Deep learning
- A machine learning method that learns features from many examples using neural networks with many stacked layers
- Segmentation
- Processing that separates and extracts regions such as organs or lesions from an image
- MATLAB
- A programming language, along with its development environment, widely used for numerical computation and image processing
