In particular, advanced skills in image segmentation (level sets, active shape/appearance models, etc.) and computer-aided detection are sought. The incumbent will work closely with a team of computer scientists, engineers and radiology technologists. In addition to performing collaborative research, the incumbent will interact closely with the PACS/RIS section, the Computer-aided Diagnosis Lab and the clinical staff in Radiology and other NIH departments. Applicants with a proven track record as evidenced by peer-reviewed publications on medical applications of image processing and having advanced mathematical and computer skills are encouraged to apply. Demonstrated expertise in Matlab, C++ and ITK (NLM’s Insight Toolkit) are required. The candidate should have a Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, Mathematics, Biophysics or Physics. The ideal candidate will have completed a post-doctoral fellowship. Salary commensurate with experience. Applications should include a CV, brief statement of research interests, and three letters of reference. DHHS and NIH are Equal Opportunity Employers.
