Anders Eklund

Senior Associate Professor

I am an associate professor and share my time between the Department of Biomedical Engineering (IMT) and the Department of Computer and Information Science (IDA).

Development of new methods for medical images

My research is about analyzing medical images and developing new methods (image processing, statistics, machine learning) for extracting important information from the images.

Synthetic images can save a lot of time in healthcare

AI makes it possible to quickly and accurately mark areas to be eliminated with radiation when treating cancerous tumors. But due to lack of medical data to train AI models with, attempts are underway to train models with synthetic medical images.

Developing medical AI without sharing sensitive information

Sharing sensitive data, such as images of brain tumor patients, is complicated. This makes development of AI models for medical image analysis challenging. LiU researchers shows how such models can be trained without sharing sensitive information.

Reducing healthcare queues after the pandemic

At the end of September, the ASSIST project received 9 million sek in funding. The hope is that their research on automated analysis of brain images will be able to free up time for healthcare professionals.
