Projects

Dynamic Imaging Center in Bern
Co-founded an interdisciplinary imaging centre bringing together clinicians, physicists, engineers, and image-analysis researchers. Focuses on investigating human movement and musculoskeletal disease using dynamic biplanar radiography, advanced MRI, and quantitative analysis. Work spans hip and shoulder instability, spinal pathology, and imaging-derived measures of joint and muscle function with technical development and clinical application.
Deep learning-based quantification of fatty infiltration on rotator cuff MRI
Worked on a deep learning approach to automatically quantify fatty infiltration of rotator cuff muscles from clinical MRI. Compared automated results with manual segmentation approaches to support quantitative assessment. Produced research outputs describing the deep learning workflow and clinical MRI measurements.
AI language model evaluation for musculoskeletal diagnostic extraction
Conducted research evaluating an AI language model for diagnostic extraction in musculoskeletal radiology reports using consensus-level and cluster-adjusted evaluation. Compared model output behavior against structured diagnostic extraction workflows. Produced publications connected to AI-assisted interpretation in radiology.
Cross-domain whole-body MRI attention U-Net for brain tumor segmentation
Contributed to a project adapting a whole-body MRI attention-based 3D U-Net framework for brain tumor segmentation across domains. Focused on applying a segmentation approach to brain tumor imaging while addressing cross-domain transfer. Produced conference outputs related to the adaptation framework.
Automated whole-body muscle-fat composition analysis on MRI
Worked on research aiming to automate evaluation of whole-body muscle-fat composition from MRI. Supported the application of machine learning techniques to quantify body composition. Contributed to the research direction for automated analysis in the musculoskeletal biodynamics context.
Dynamic Biplane Radiographic Imaging (DBRI) research platform
Developed and set up a dynamic biplane radiographic imaging research platform for biodynamic diagnostics. Coordinated the instrumentation and analytical approach for motion analysis in musculoskeletal studies. Participated as an applicant/co-applicant in funding efforts supporting DBRI implementation.
