Missions
As part of the FOLLOW-KNEE university-hospital research program (funded over 5 years), aimed at implementing an innovative solution for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee, the consortium, led by Inserm and bringing together several industrial, institutional and clinical partners, hires a postdoctoral researcher.
The position will be based at the LATIM (Medical Information Processing Laboratory), a joint research unit between University Hospital of brest, University of Brest, IMT Atlantique and Inserm. Born from the complementarity between the field of Stic and Health, LATIM is nationally and internationally recognized for its expertise, its contribution in medical imaging and the implementation of innovative solutions in oncology and interventional therapies.
The objective of the position is to develop and make available to orthopedic surgeons, a morphological and functional model of the knee. The purpose of this model is to predict, during the preoperative phase and for a given patient, the functional results of a surgical strategy for the placement of a total knee prosthesis. The modeling will be done from a heterogeneous database including MRI, CT, X-ray radiographs and kinematic data. The model will have to be deformed and adjusted according to some specific data of the treated patient.
Main Activities
• Analyze and process a large number of multimodal data (MRI, CT, X-ray radiographs, kinematics, ...)
• Create morpho-functional knee model based on these data
• Validate this model
• Develop the deformation algorithm considering the data associated with a treated patient
• Validate this algorithm
Associated Activities
• Publish and disseminate research in recognized journals and congresses in the field Knowledge
• Statistical shape or appearance modeling (Active Shape / Appearance Models)
• Machine learning
• Multimodal Registration
• Software development (C ++ and / or Python) with ITK, VTK, Statismo libraries, Caffee or TensorFlow
Expertise
• Run a research project autonomously
• Ensure a state of the art of the scientific domain
• Develop innovative algorithms in medical image processing• Communicate and demonstrate pedagogy
Skills
• Team work
• Relational qualities (multiple interactions with clinicians)
• Creativity / Sense of Innovation
Expected experience
• Similar experience from 1 to 5 years
Expected Degree
• PhD
• Desired area of training: Computer Vision, Medical Imaging
