We bring together expertise in computer science, physics, and medicine to address key challenges within healthcare.
Our vision is to pioneer the next-generation medical imaging and computational techniques, using advanced algorithms and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to revolutionise medical diagnosis, treatment planning, and healthcare delivery.
Aims
Our aims are:
- to enhance patient outcomes
- to improve clinical workflows
- to contribute to the advancement of healthcare globally
Research
We conduct active research in diverse Medical Image Computing (MIC) topics, including:
- image acquisition and reconstruction
- image processing and analysis
- automated Quality Control (QC)
- microstructure imaging
- numerical simulations
- bayesian inference
- big data
- multimodal data integration
- data compression
Projects
Our interdisciplinary MIC projects are funded by the UKRI, Cancer Research Wales and industry (such as Roche and GSK) and others.
Some of our projects include:
- UKRI - FLF ‘AI-powered brain microstructure imaging’
- UKRI - MRC ‘Making the Invisible Visible: a Multi-Scale Imaging Approach to Detect and Characterise Cortical Pathology’ and press release: Research project awarded £1m in funding to uncover new ‘fingerprints’ of brain disease - News - Cardiff University
- UKRI – BBSRC ‘Magnetic Susceptibility Interference MRI: developing new imaging methods to quantify axonal magnetic properties and myelin integrity’
