Funded Activity Summary

Smart Information Use for PET-CT Quantitative Molecular Imaging. This project aims to use advanced computing algorithms to tackle challenging problems associated with a new medical technology called PET-CT which combines two imaging modalities in one device. While this technology is very new and has great potential in cancer and brain disorders, it also poses major challenges for information processing and transmission. We will address these challenges by developing advanced algorithms that optimally extract information from PET and CT using mathematical models that correct for the various sources of inaccuracy. Our research will put Australian biomedical researchers and healthcare professionals at the forefront of advanced medical imaging technology.
