Automatic tools to segment images often only work effectively within a narrow range of conditions. In this project, a semi-automatic approach for tumour segmentation will be developed via integration of user-interaction within radiomics and machine learning approaches. The project will be conducted at Mirada Medical Ltd, in collaboration with the University of Oxford. Secondments to other partners within the European consortium will be required during the project.
Mirada was spun out from Oxford University in 1998 to develop novel technologies in image registration, tracking and mammography. Mirada has since established itself as a world class technology provider in the area of multi-modality medical imaging. Located at the centre of the beautiful city of Oxford, UK, Mirada participates in collaborative research projects across numerous University departments. Mirada also has strong links to other leading research and clinical facilities world-wide.
