Am Donnerstag, dem 23.04.2015, findet ab 15.30 Uhr das Medizintechnik-Kolloquium statt.
Vortragender: Dr. Hendrik Laue, Fraunhofer MEVIS
Ort: historischer Saal der Lukasklause statt
Titel des Vortrags: "Linking diffusion weighted and dynamic contrast enhanced MRI with pathology in lung cancer diagnostics and treatment."
Abstract: Functional imaging of tumors using MRI perfusion and diffusion measurements can help selecting the correct treatment in lung cancer therapy. Moreover, the new establishment of tumor boards in hospitals connects the medical experience of radiologist, pathologist, surgeon and oncologist bringing the need for a combined display of quantitative radiological as well as pathological data and images. Our software, PulmoMR, provides advanced quantitative MRI methods combined with functionality for viewing pathological information, either in the reading room or in a tumor board meeting. Radiologist can prepare quantitative evaluations for pulmonary perfusion (PP)-MRI of the parenchyma, dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)-MRI and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI)-MRI of the tumor tissue providing important biomarkers for the tumor. Additionally, pathologist can present their finding on selected histological images revealing additional information to the radiologist or to a tumor board meeting.
CV: Hendrik Laue received his diploma in physics at the University of Bremen, Bremen, in 1999 in the field of polar ocean and atmospheric remote sensing with passive microwave sensors. He obtained his PhD at the University of Bremen on the application of optical and near infrared remote sensing of canola cultivation in Northern Germany in October 2004. From November 2004 until March 2005 he worked as an associated and visiting Scientist at the Institute of Environmental Physics at the University of Bremen and the Danish Meteorological Institute, Copenhagen on the field of microwave remote sensing of the atmospheric parameters of the arctic atmosphere. He continued this work until September 2005 as a Post-Doc at the Institute of Environmental Physics at the University of Bremen. Since October 2006 he is employed at MeVis Research, now and is working in the field of contrast enhanced dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI). He working on the diagnosis of stroke and diagnosis and treatment monitoring for cancer using dynamic imaging using MRI and CT. He is also responsible for the analysis software DynaLab and co-author of the functional MRI lung application PulmoMR.
