BRAIN TUMOUR GROWTH PREDICTION

该子项目是利用NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为中心，不一定是研究者所在机构。我们正在研究从人脑MRI图像中分割肿瘤体积的方法，并预测肿瘤如何随着时间的推移而生长。我们也有兴趣通过MRI扫描预测隐匿性肿瘤细胞，以改善治疗计划。 这项工作是与埃德蒙顿交叉癌症研究所的成员，这是阿尔伯塔癌症委员会的一部分。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. We are investigating ways to segment tumor volumes from MRI images of human brains, and to predict how the tumor will grow over time. We are also interested in predicting occult tumor cells, from MRI scans, to improve treatment planning. This work is with members of the Cross Cancer Institute of Edmonton, which is part of the Alberta Cancer Board.
