CIALAB Hosting Fulbright Scholar

The OSU Department of Biomedical Informatics Clinical Image Analysis (CIA) Lab is hosting Dr. Erkan Mumcuoglu as a Fulbright visiting professor. Dr. Mumcuoglu is an Associate Professor of Medical Informatics at Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey. He is also among the founders of the same department.

Dr. Mumcuoglu's main research interest is Medical Image Analysis: segmentation, registration, computer-aided diagnosis and content-based image retrieval. His Ph.D. degree is from University of Southern California on statistical PET image reconstruction algorithms and modeling. Dr. Mumcuoglu has been collaborating with Dr. Metin Gurcan from our department in the segmentation of retinal mitocondria on electron-microscopy images.

Dr. Mumcuoglu is going to give a talk on his research actvities on Feb. 12 at 4 pm as part of the departmental Research In Progress (RIP) Seminar Series.

CIALAB encouraging talented young minds with summer internships

CIALAB is pleased to introduce the three interns namely Tong Gan, Rosana Rodriguez Milanes and Michael Priddy working through summer’09. Rosana Rodriguez Milanes - I am a third year undergraduate student in Electronic Engineering from Universidad del Norte, Colombia. My experience as a volunteer foreign student in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory has been an edifying, gratifying and enriching. Being able to participate, to learn and to collaborate in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory during the past two weeks has allowed me to improve my analytical and interpretative skills in processing histopathological and MRI images. I have been able to learn about segmentation, region growing, splitting and merging algorithms development. I have also had the privilege of knowing and interacting with excellent engineers who have helped me improve my skills as a foreign student. I am grateful for the opportunity that the Ohio State University has given me to collaborate and to learn with...

Recent publications

The CIA lab has recently had 4 articles published in PLOS One and the Journal of Urology. Automated Staging Of T1 Bladder Cancer Using Digital Pathologic H&E Images: A Deep Learning approach (Journal of Urology). The paper discusses the need for accurately gauging tumor cell intrusion into Lamina Propria in an effort to substage bladder cancer. It explains how transfer learning in conjunction with Convolutional Neural Networks can be used to accurately identify different bladder layers and then compute the distance between tumor nuclei and Lamina Propria. The article is available here:  https://www.jurology.com/article/S0022-5347(18)41148-2/pdf Identifying tumor in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms from Ki67 images using transfer learning (PLOS One). This paper examines a proposed methodology to automatically differentiate between NET and non-tumor regions based on images of Ki67 stained biopsies. It also uses transfer learning to exploit a rich set of features ...
