Abstract（报告摘要）:

Technological innovation has presented new and promising ways to improve medical diagnosis, treatment, education, and healthcare service with ever-increasing rigor, subtlety, insight, and precision. Among these advanced technologies, artificial intelligence (AI) and extended reality (XR) are growing fast and making huge transformations in medicine and healthcare. Integrating AI and XR research can open many new possibilities towards achieving and delivering precision medicine for next-generation healthcare. However, there remain challenges to applying AI/XR to medical image computing and computer-assisted intervention in real-world clinical applications.

In this talk, I shall introduce our related work in applying AI and XR in medical applications.
