Research Focus
Dr. Sumit Chopra's research lab is focused on using artificial intelligence to improve the detection of prostate cancer through innovative MRI technology. The lab aims to make MRI diagnostics more accessible and effective, specifically for early detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (CSPCA). By leveraging machine learning to analyze reduced data from MRI scans, the team plans to enable point-of-care diagnostics that could revolutionize how prostate cancer is identified and monitored.

Research Aims
3AIM 01Establish the feasibility of machine learning models for detecting CSPCA from under-sampled MRI data.
AIM 02Determine the minimum amount of k-space data needed for accurate disease detection without relying on high-quality images.
AIM 03Show that CSPCA can be identified from degraded k-space data using low-field scanners.
