Care & Cure Science Café

Subscribe now for the next edition of the Center for Care & Cure Technology (C3Te) bimonthly Science Café. Due to the Corona situation the Care & Cure Science Café will be in the form of a webinar (participants will receive the MS Teams link on the day of the webinar).

Prostate cancer localization by ultrasound imaging of angiogenesis
Massimo Mischi, Biomedical Diagnostics Lab (BM/d) of Signal Processing Systems (SPS) group.

One in 7 men is diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime. Yet, current management of the disease is far from optimal. This can mainly be ascribed to the limits of the available imaging technology, such that current diagnostics of prostate cancer is still based on systematic biopsies. We have invested more than 10 years of research in the development of novel ultrasound solutions to image cancer angiogenesis and localize prostate cancer. In my talk, I will present the journey through our technological advances as well as the route towards valorisation and clinical translation of our scientific output.
