Importance of a reliable diagnosis of myometrial lesions using ultrasonography and liquid biopsy biomarkers in clinical gynecological practice. KU Leuven
Malignant myometrial lesions (sarcomas) are highly aggressive and require radical surgery in an oncological centre. Benign myometrial lesions (myomas) may either be managed expectantly, treated medically or by selective uterine artery embolisation or surgically by laparoscopic myomectomy with morcellation. It is of utmost importance to accurately identify sarcomas, not only because any delay in diagnosis is associated with lower survival ...
Three dimensional ultrasound and artificial intelligence in the characterization of adnexal masses KU Leuven
The objective of the thesis is to develop knowledge on gynecologic ultrasound. Specifically I will concentrate myself on the fields of artificial intelligence and three- dimensional ultrasound applied to the ovarian cancer first and later also focus on the three- dimensional ultrasound to endometrial cancer and uterine malformations. I will participate in the already ongoing research projects and take the chance to start new projects based on ...
