Research Introduction

Dr. Tang’s research focuses on the intelligent and quantitative analysis of medical images, with primary applications to the multi-modality MRI image analysis of the human brain and the multi-modality ophthalmic images, as well as the AI-based early diagnosis and prediction of brain disorders and eye diseases.

Research Interests

Medical image segmentation and registration, diffusion tensor image analysis, statistical shape analysis, manifold learning and clustering, spatiotemporal analysis, multi-modality MRI analysis, pattern recognition, machine learning, big data in medicine.
