A digital framework to build, visualize and analyze a gene expression atlas during zebrafish early embr- yogenesis has been published and the tools developed have been made freely available on line .
Research on image-guided liver surgery planning has produced a registration method to combined contrast-enhanced MR and CT images, combining the good capabilities to detect liver lesions of the former with the high specificity of the latter . This work has led to an international publication and is being evaluated with clinical cases .
Two new research contracts have been signed with Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Fun- dación madri+d para el Conocimiento . One has the aim of developing energy-based technologies to reduce central-line infections in hemodialysis patients and the other is to improve pulmonary embolism detection and prognosis using computer vision .
The work on determining the prognosis of patients suffering from pulmonary embolism has led to an international patent application, given the commercial interest expressed by several companies in the sector, and a prospective clinical study has been approached in Brigham and Women’s Hospital .
A fast acquisition module for PET imaging has been designed, built and tested, producing a technology transfer to the Spanish company Sedecal that incorporates this module in its new line of high resolution PET scanners .
Finally, the group has participated in two international challenges: one for automated vessel segmen- tation in lung CT images, and another for cell tracking in microscopy images . Their results have been released in two journal publications .
