THE COMPUTATIONAL IMAGING LAB

Located in the heart of Israel's largest hospital, CILAB is one of a kind. Our team of graduate students in electrical and biomedical engineering develops advanced solutions to challenging problems in medical imaging. Over 14 years, our research has spanned the full breadth of computational imaging, from acquisition to analysis. Explore our current research below.

Ultra-low dose chest CT slice

Ultra-Low Dose CT for Novel Screening Applications

Computationally enhanced ULDCT — bringing any CT scanner to X-ray dose levels to enable new screening applications.

MRI-derived ground truth liver fat fraction maps beside maps predicted from ultra-low dose CT

Liver Fat Fraction Assessment by Ultra-Low Dose CT

MRI-supervised 3D liver fat mapping at chest X-ray dose, opening the door to fatty liver screening.

Axial CTA slice of the abdominal wall with an automatic colour overlay marking subcutaneous fat, rectus abdominis muscle, perforating vessels and the perforation points

Automatic Perforator Mapping for Breast Flap Surgery

CTA to surgical map in under ten minutes — automating a DIEP flap planning read that today takes hours by hand.

Sagittal brain MRI slice with a small cluster of green, blue and red voxels marking the predicted language area against the fMRI ground truth

Mapping Functional Language Areas with non-Functional MRI

Locating Broca and Wernicke from routine structural scans — no fMRI, no language task, no patient cooperation.

Coronal fractional-anisotropy brain slice with the bilateral motor tract highlighted in red, segmented automatically from a 16-direction diffusion scan

Ultra-Fast DTI

White matter tractography from a four-minute diffusion scan instead of nineteen — denoising and tract segmentation in one pipeline.

A 3D PET volume with three whole-body maximum intensity projections fanning out from it, framed in cyan, green and red to mark different viewing angles

PET MIP AI

Tumour segmentation on the rotating projections radiologists actually read — 3D accuracy at a fraction of the compute.
