About Us
The Applied Chest Imaging Laboratory is a multidisciplinary group to provide quantiative-based research on lung diseases. The primary focus on the lab is in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Pulmonary Vascular Disease and Interstitial Lung Disease. Our mission is to leverage the power of imaging to better understand and quantify disease processes by hypothesis driven modeling. Our group develops state-of-the art imaging analysis and modeling algorithms to empower clinical and genetic research.
