SUMMARY:ICVS Advanced Seminars “Automating analysis and training in focused cardiac ultrasound”
DESCRIPTION:Sandro Queirós (SQ) graduated in Biomedical Engineering in 2013 by the University of Minho (Portugal). In 2018\, he completed a joint Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Engineering by the University of Minho (Portugal) and in Biomedical Sciences by KU Leuven (Belgium). Since 2018\, SQ is a full-time researcher at ICVS\, having been granted an FCT-funded junior research position in 2020.\nThroughout his research career\, Sandro has been mainly interested in the development of novel medical imaging processing solutions to help clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Specifically\, his work has been focused primarily on cardiovascular diseases – the leading cause of death in the world. He has been the leading developer of novel image processing methodologies for cardiac function quantification\, as well as novel technological solutions for preoperative planning\, intraoperative guidance\, and postoperative evaluation of transcatheter heart interventions. More recently\, his work aims at developing novel artificial intelligent solutions for automatic medical training and diagnosis in echocardiography.\nOverall\, SQ (co-)authored 40 peer-reviewed articles\, 39 full proceedings\, and 29 conference abstracts\, totaling an accumulated IF of 184\, >1300 citations and an h-index of 21. His research outputs have also led to 2 international and 1 Portuguese invention patents\, 2 provisional patents and the commercial licensing of an image tracking software. SQ has also (co-)supervised the thesis of 4 Ph.D. (ongoing)\, 10 M.Sc. (3 ongoing) and 6 B.Sc. students.
