Dr. Gurcan to Present in Sweden

Dr. Gurcan to present in Sweden


In a couple of weeks, Dr. Gurcan will be traveling to Sweden to speak at 2nd Nordic Digital Pathology Symposium 2014 in Linköping, Sweden followed by the CIM Workshop on Mathematics and Medicine in Uppsala, Sweden. On November 6th, he will give a keynote talk entitled “Clinical Image Analysis: Closing the Loop.” On November 7th, he will present “Clinical Image Analysis: Affecting Decisions” as an invited speaker. Both talks will include advantages of using computer-image analysis systems in radiology and pathology and the importance of proper assessment methods with examples from the lab’s projects.

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...

Dr. Gurcan to present a tutorial at IEEE ICASSP 2010

Dr. Gurcan will present a tutorial at IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing (ICASSP) 2010 entitled “Biomedical Image Processing and Analysis Techniques.” ( http://www.icassp2010.org/Tutorial_03.asp) Biomedical image processing and analysis requires coordinated efforts of medical professionals, algorithmic and software engineers, and statisticians. Basic image processing techniques are frequently used in every aspect of the development from initial pre-processing techniques for noise reduction, to segmentation of lesions, to registration of lesions. Recent advances in hardware and software have made it possible to create digital scans of whole slides. These images are relatively large (100k x 100k) and in color, hence processing them present new challenges. Similarly, new computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scanners produce thousands of slices of images. The processing need for these images are enormous. Although biomedical image analy...

BMI researchers to receive prestigious Intramural Award

BMI researcher Metin Gurcan, PhD (Professor, Director of Division of Clinical and Translational Informatics) in collaboration with Anil Parwani, MD, PhD, MBA (Vice Chair of Pathology) and Cheryl Lee, MD (Chair of Urology) have been awarded one of the prestigious OSU Comprehensive Cancer Center Intramural Research Funding Awards. The research team for the project also includes Soledad Fernandez, PhD (BMI), Nancy Single (CCC), Khalid Niazi, PhD (BMI) and Brett Klamer, MS (BMI).   The two-year project, entitled Application of image analysis tools to accurately stage and risk stratify patients with T1 bladder cancer, will be primarily funded by Pelotonia dollars. Pelotonia is a three-day bike tour organized every year in Columbus to raise money for cancer research with one goal: “End Cancer.” Every rider-raised dollar goes to fund research at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center. Bladder cancer is an important disease that affects nearly 77,000 people annuall...
