Research areas description

At the LIV4D, we exploit medical imaging in its many forms to develop new processes and tools to help clinicians diagnose and treat various diseases. By exploiting spatial (3D) and temporal (=> 4D) information from imaging modalities, our work also contributes to a better understanding of these diseases. Our group is situated at the border between of the fields of medicine, engineering and computer science, and collaborates with a variety of stakeholders in academia, research, the health care system and industry.

Our research interests include musculoskeletal deformities (e.g. idiopathic scoliosis), cardiovascular diseases (e.g. coronary atherosclerosis) and ocular diseases (e.g. diabetic retinopathy). In our research, we apply techniques from image processing, reconstruction and modeling, multimodal fusion, computer vision and machine learning.
