Medical image analysis using machine learning
I am interested in developing machine-learning models using medical images. My current investigation involves PET/CT and digital-histology analysis of the different cancer subtypes to identify image biomarkers for prognosis and survival analysis. During PhD, I have experience working with generative and variational models for positron emission tomography reconstruction and kinetic analysis. My PhD domain knowledge in image reconstruction helps me developing ML models for patient specific treatment planning.
Industry
I have worked on the clinical evaluation of musculoskeletal TSE MRI images reconstructed using deep learning with radiographers at Siemens Healthineers.
