AI analyst medical imaging

at  Amsterdam UMC

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Half of the patients who receive radiotherapy in the abdominopelvic region develop symptoms of small bowel toxicity, which negatively impacts their quality of life. To prevent small bowel toxicity during treatment planning, understanding the dose-effect relationship is crucial. However, since radiotherapy is generally administered over multiple treatment fractions on different days, precise calculation of dose accumulation in the small bowel per segment is challenging because registering small bowel segments across radiotherapy fractions remains difficult.

As an AI analyst, you will:

• Develop AI models to analyze abdominal MR scans, focusing on the extraction of the small bowel centerline and registration of small bowel segments on MR scans.
• Work with medical professionals to understand the nuances of abdominal imaging and integrate this understanding into the AI model.
• Continuously test and refine the model for accuracy and efficiency.
• Document and report on the model’s development process and outcomes.
• Collaborate with a cross-disciplinary team to investigate the application of AI model in clinical practice.
