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 an excellent team of professionals working in the digital imaging processing field.

  • Michael Priddy - I am a medical student who just finished my first year. Graduating from Brigham Young University, most of my research experience has been in the field of History (which I received my undergraduate degree in). I will be spending the summer analyzing the relationships between cartilage, strength, muscle content and KL scores (osteoarthritis of the knee) with an emphasis on using the muscle content numbers (intramuscular fat content, lean muscle cross-sectional area, cross-sectional area of muscle with fat included, and the ratio of fat vs. muscle inside a muscle).

  • Tong Gan - I am a fourth year undergraduate student majoring in Microbiology and am interested in pursuing medical school after graduation. My research experience started with a lab assistant position in the Department of Plant and Cellular Molecular Biology of Ohio State where I learned the basics of bench research and helped various post-docs in a project discovering the basis of Circadian Rhythms in arabidopsis plants. My next research was under Dr. Thomas Best for summer credit in immunostaining rabbit muscle tissues to see the effect of massage on injured muscles. Currently, I am working on the Osteoarthritis project that entails manually segmenting the MRI medial meniscus for 160 patients and then writing a MATLAB program that measures its volume, thickness, and surface area.

    Google map is here for us and it is helping us to discover our direction. We realize that to utilize this application we should click to find out more internest association. This sort of association is helping us to discover puts in better way and we can achieved our predetermination in time.

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 developed

Drs. Goceri, Kus, and Senaras Present at OSUMC Research Day

On April 25th, Drs. Goceri, Kus, and Senaras presented their research at the OSUMC Research Day.  Dr. Evgin Goceri presented “Automatic and Robust Segmentation of Liver and Its Vessels from MR Datasets for Pre-Evaluation of Liver Translation” which proposed a robust and fully automated method for segmenting the liver and its vessels from MR images. Dr. Goceri’s study presented a novel approach to reducing processing time by employing binary regularization of the level set function. The fully-automatic segmentation of liver and its vessels with the proposed method was more efficient than manual approach and the other methods in the literature in terms of processing time and accuracy. Dr. Pelin Kus presented “Segmentation and Quantification of Tissue Necrosis in Tuberculosis” which focuses on how the immune system of patients infected with M. tuberculosis responds by using many types of cells including macrophages that form granulomas within the pulmonary tissue. Segmentation a
