IMSB is collaborating with various clinics within the UKE and external partners to find innovative solutions to different image analysis problems. Our main focus is on the automated analysis of medical imaging data, contributing to a deeper understanding of these diseases and eventually bringing tools into the clinic that can support pathologists’ and radiologists’ analyses we work with various types of imaging data, from tissue biopsies using classical as well as innovative microscopy technologies to magnetic resonance imaging.
