About Us
The Applied Chest Imaging Laboratory at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, is a multidisciplinary team dedicated to advancing quantitative research in the field of lung diseases. Our primary focus lies in the investigation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Pulmonary Vascular Disease, and Interstitial Lung Disease. We are committed to harnessing the potential of cutting-edge imaging technology to deepen our understanding and quantification of disease processes through hypothesis-driven modeling. Our team of experts collaborates to create state-of-the-art imaging analysis and modeling algorithms, ultimately empowering clinical and genetic research to revolutionize patient care.
