Cardiovascular radiomics
Prof Valentina Corino ( Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria (DEIB), Politecnico di Milano )
Radiomics is an emerging field for the identification of novel, non-invasive biomarkers from medical images. Radiomics extracts and mines quantitative features from radiological images, and has recently emerged as a promising source of non-invasive image-based cardiovascular biomarkers, potentially revolutionizing diagnostics and risk assessment.
This seminar explores the methodological challenges to be faced in cardiovascular radiomics and describes radiomic models to phenotype cardiac vascular disease and to create radiomic signatures from cardiac imaging for personalized medicine and cardiovascular risk prediction and stratification. Finally, future directions in cardiovascular radiomics will be discussed.
Speaker bio
Valentina Corino is Associate Professor at the Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. Her research activity lies in the field of biomedical signal and image processing. Her main interests are in signals of cardiovascular origin, especially regarding supraventricular arrhythmias to assess for example autonomic tone, drug response. Regarding image processing, her research lies in radiomics applied to magnetic resonance images and computed tomography of oncological and cardiac patients to assess treatment response and survival analysis. She is responsible of the LEGO lab (DigitaL tEchnologies for imaGing and sensOrs), a laboratory dedicated to digital technologies, imaging and sensoring, and part of the joint research center between Politecnico di Milano and IRCCS Centro Cardiologico Monzino. She is PI of the INSIDE-HEART project, a Doctoral Network of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. She has published more than 70 full journal papers and over 60 contributions to conference proceedings.
