With CIUS at IUS

Twenty-nine experts and researchers associated with CIUS participated at IUS, the IEEE International Ultrasound Symposium in Kobe, Japan, in October 2018. Not only the number of attendees, but also the number of presentations from CIUS was impressively high. In the final Highlight Session, well-recognized experts summed up the most important scientific achievements presented at IUS. The first panelist, Professor Ton van der Steen, focused a.o. on NTNU’s achievements within 4D mechanical wave mapping of the heart and on NTNU’s Deep learning activities within echocardiography. His message was that “NTNU exemplifies how the close scientific work between clinicians and ultrasound technology researchers at NTNU steers the direction and guarantees the relevance and quality of the academic research in an exemplary way”.
