Title: <\/b>Advancing Precision across the Surgical Care Continuum<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Abstract: <\/b>In the continuum of surgical care, advances in diagnostic and therapeutic precision drive the modern approach to cancer treatment. Treatment quality in surgical oncology fundamentally depends on the exactness of diagnostic assessment, the personalization of therapeutic management, and the completeness of treatment delivery.\u00a0Yet, despite clinical decision-making relying heavily on longitudinal integration of multimodal data, computer-assisted methods for interpreting changes in disease state are substantially challenged by the ability to achieve robust longitudinal congruity of data throughout treatment course. This talk will highlight recent work that enables (i) multi-modal radiology-pathology deformable image fusion to establish dense ground truth supervision signal as a novel reference standard for training diagnostic models, (ii) longitudinal image registration to establish reliable imaging markers for characterizing therapeutic response, and (iii) registration uncertainty to establish robust intraoperative capabilities for comprehensively targeting preoperatively mapped disease. In aggregate, this research aims to transform the ability to accurately characterize and map the longitudinal context of disease state through all phases of treatment course to advance the precision of image-guided assessment and intervention.<\/div>\n
