MRI-based radiomics of sarcomas in the preclinical arm of a Co-clinical trial

Conference Progress in Biomedical Optics and Imaging Proceedings of SPIE · January 1, 2020 Radiomics provide an exciting approach to developing imaging biomarkers in the context of precision medicine. We focus on the preclinical arm of a co-clinical trial investigating synergy of immunotherapy combined with radiation therapy (RT) and surgical re ... Full text Cite

To gate or not to gate: An evaluation of respiratory gating techniques to improve volume measurement of murine lung tumors in micro-CT imaging

Conference Progress in Biomedical Optics and Imaging Proceedings of SPIE · January 1, 2019 Small animal imaging has become essential in evaluating new cancer therapies as they are translated from the preclinical to clinical domain. However, preclinical imaging is faced with unique challenges that emphasize the gap between mouse and man. One exam ... Full text Cite

Multi-modal MRI segmentation of sarcoma tumors using convolutional neural networks

Conference Progress in Biomedical Optics and Imaging Proceedings of SPIE · January 1, 2019 Small animal imaging is essential in building a bridge from basic science to the clinic by providing the confidence necessary to move new cancer therapies to patients. However, there is considerable variability in preclinical imaging, including tumor volum ... Full text Cite
