Research groups organized by our department

Advanced x-ray imaging methods

Ioannis Sechopoulos's research group specializes in research on novel image acquisition, processing and analysis in diagnostic x-ray based imaging, particularly for breast and body computed tomography.

AI in thoracic oncology

Colin Jacobs's research group investigates how to develop robust and trustworthy artificial intelligence algorithms for medical imaging in the field of lung cancer, how to validate these algorithms in clinical practice, and how we can have the most impact with AI in healthcare.

Anatomy

Amanda Kiliaan's research group studies (cerebro)vascular risk factors for AD (hypertension, stroke, cSVD, obesity) using innovative neuroimaging and cognitive/motor tests, from mouse models to postmortem human brain and morbid obesity.

Ambition and impact

We focus on early detection and treatment of common diseases. Our three focus areas are: anatomy, nuclear medicine and radiology.

Our research includes basic research at the molecular level, the development of new medical devices and the development of software tools. We translate these into clinical applications that can be used in daily routine.

The Dosimetry Core Unit supports effective and safe radionuclide therapy for cancer patients. Its researchers perform translational research, covering the whole range from bench to bedside.
