This research develops a physics-based method for measuring lung elasticity from medical imaging to predict which emphysema patients will benefit from lung valve treatment. By creating detailed elasticity maps, the work aims to improve treatment selection, enhance patient outcomes, and provide new quantitative tools for assessing lung health.

This research uses artificial intelligence to predict the progression of Alzheimer’s disease and cancer using medical imaging data. By analyzing brain scans, tumor scans, and treatment responses, AI models can forecast disease development and treatment outcomes, enabling earlier intervention, more personalized care, and improved quality of life for aging populations.
