Our Research

Northwestern University's Quantitative Imaging Core Lab (QICL) researches the development and evaluation of new imaging biomarkers and automated imaging solutions to obtain functional and structural characteristics of tumor.

We are developing the innovational imaging biomarkers as supplemental biomarkers to meet new trial requirements and to provide specialty expertise for specific imaging protocols that many other core labs do not have available.

KIME Image Processing Software

We have developed DICOM processing software, KIME, focused on quantitative oncologic imaging. It includes tools for semi-automated segmentation and calculation of a wide range of textural, or radiomic, features from CT, PET and MR images.
