A massive congratulations to our talented researcher Sathyathas who recently successfully defended, submitted and obtained his PhD! His thesis is titled Ultrasound transducer induced CT artifacts correction in ultrasound-guided proton therapy for cardiac arrhythmia, and can be found here.
This collaborative project between QUT and a Swiss CERN spin-off company, EBAMed, solved one of the most challenging problems in an innovative advanced treatment modality for cardiac arrhythmia, ultrasound-guided proton-based cardiac radioablation. The development of novel artificial intelligence-based strategies for image artifacts correction has made this treatment modality more accurate and reliable, thus potentially improving treatment outcome for patients.
A PhD by publication is no easy task! Sathyathas, you have worked incredibly hard and should be incredibly proud of your success.
