Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology at Washington University (WashU) School of Medicine in St. Louis, MO, has established a new Center for Computational and AI-enabled Imaging Sciences.
The center, led by Mark Anastasio, PhD, will focus on developing AI-based medical imaging applications that integrate information from various imaging modalities. It will also support training for clinicians and researchers and work in partnership with WashU's McKelvey School of Engineering.
In an announcement, WashU Medicine highlighted two software packages from the WashU pipeline: a breast cancer prediction tool intended for mammography and an AI-based brain-mapping software designed to enhance the precision of neurosurgeries. Both are currently in the process of commercialization, WashU said.
