Abstract

In this talk, I will give a perspective on past and current trends in medical imaging particularly regarding the role of imaging in personalized medicine. I will then outline core technologies enabling the advancements, with specific focus on empirical and mechanistic modeling. In addition, I demonstrate some example clinical applications on how mechanistic and empirical models derived based on imaging are used for treatment planning and therapy outcome analysis. I conclude by providing a future outlook for the utilization of imaging in the healthcare continuum.
