Award for developing a 3D MRI-based imaging application to assess treatment response in pediatric optic pathway gliomas, funded by the National Cancer Institute at NIH.
Description
The project involves developing and validating a 3D MRI-based quantitative imaging application for pediatric brain tumors, specifically NF1-OPGs. The project aims to improve treatment response assessment and standardize imaging protocols across different MRI manufacturers. It includes developing machine learning algorithms for tumor volume and shape measurement. The project team is based at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
