Reading Between the Pixels: Sarah Mattonen on the Future of Cancer Imaging
Description
Every cancer journey begins with images—CT scans, MRIs, X-rays. For most of us, they're snapshots that confirm what's already there. But for Sarah Mattonen, PhD, at Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, those images hold untold stories. She's uncovering hidden patterns in scans—clues that can reveal if a tumor might come back, or if treatment could cause side effects before patients feel them. With the power of AI, she's turning medical images into roadmaps for truly personalized cancer care. In this episode, we explore how her work is transforming cancer treatment today, and what it means for the future of oncology.
