Supporting clinicians with image analysis
Organisational profile
Imaging is a crucial element of all stages of medical care: from screening, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment, to the monitoring of therapy. With the increasing size and complexity of images, automated image analysis is an indispensible support for clinicians. Moreover, it opens novel ways to improve care.
We contribute to this rapidly growing field by developing new concepts for medical image analysis as well as applications that support clinicians in their decision making, ultimately aiming for safer and better care.
Our group investigates image analysis on methodological topics as registration, quantification, crowdsourcing and machine learning. In close contact with industry and hospitals, we contribute to the field of image analysis for oncology, cardiology, neurology and histopathology as well as the field of high-field MRI acquisition and RF safety.
We provide courses on the topic of Medical Image Analysis in both the Bachelor's and the Master's curriculum (both BME and ME programs). In cooperation with the University Medical Center Utrecht we offer a joint master in Medical Imaging.
