SMILE - Stockholm Medical Image Laboratory and Education

SMILE is the translational hub where clinicians, researchers and PhD-students from academy, healthcare and industry meet and benefit from the collected competence in image analysis, visualization and quantification. While using the images, tools and innovations for improved diagnostics and patient care, near collaboration with medtech companies is a prerequisite.

By preparing access to and treating clinical and preclinical images in a scientific way we strive to optimize the availability and use of medical image technology by

  • extracting, processing and visualizing medically significant information
  • make images and structured data available for data mining, radiomics and radiogenomics
  • offering a regional and national network and education around techniques, ethics and policies connected to the use of clinical and preclinical images and to them connected data
