Ten Student Papers Accepted by the Radiology Society of America
Ten research papers by IIT Armour College of Engineering students, under the guidance of Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Kenji Suzuki, were accepted and presented at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference. The RSNA is known not only as the biggest clinical international conference in medicine with the largest number of participants (more than 60,000).
Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Ph.D. students include, Junchi Liu, Amin Zarshenas, Paul Forti, and Yuji Zhao. ECE Graduate students include Zheng Wei and Jaimeet Patel.
"I am very proud of my students for their great accomplishments, and because it is generally difficult even for doctors and professors to get papers accepted for presentation at this prestigious conference," explained Suzuki.
PhD students are funded by Suzui's external grants and TA/RA from the ECE department. Master students participate in Suzuki's research project course, Special Problems in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE-597).
The research papers are listed below:
