Saeed Seyyedi
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Radiology
Bio Dr. Saeed Seyyedi is a Data Scientist, AI and Deep Learning Specialist and Research Fellow in the Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine & Imaging (AIMI) at Stanford University. Dr. Seyyedi is a computer scientist and biomedical engineer and has specialized in artificial intelligence applications including Deep Learning, Computer Vision and NLP techniques for analysis of multi-modality real world datasets, Generative Adversarial (GAN) models, digital signal and data processing techniques including image classification, segmentation and radiomics, image reconstruction and low-dose imaging.
Dr. Seyyedi received his Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering where he studied techniques for processing and analysis of digital breast tomosynthesis data. He obtained his PhD in Computer Science, Medical Imaging and Informatics from Technical University of Munich in Germany where he was the recipient of an E.U. research fellowship supporting his research and studies in the field of computer science, medical imaging and informatics. During his PhD studies, he was a visiting scholar at Johns Hopkins University where he was involved in development of advanced models for multi-modality imaging problems.
Prior to joining AIMI, he was investigating image and data analysis techniques at Definiens AG - subsidiary of AstraZeneca PLC - where he led multiple projects and collaborations with several academic and industrial research partners focusing on AI based applications for analysis of big medical and biological datasets including digital pathologic and radiologic imaging data. He also worked with the British Columbia Cancer Agency of Canada as a part of PanCan lung cancer screening project where he and his team developed deep learning and radiomics applications for lung cancer detection and classification. At AIMI, he is involved in AI and medical imaging research, particularly in leading projects for development of deep learning and computer vision methods and other tools to detect and characterize cancer on radiologic images. He is an author, reviewer and editorial board member in several journals and conferences and his interdisciplinary research and studies have been supported and recognized by a number of awards and grants. -
Rajesh Shah
Clinical Associate Professor, Radiology
Bio I am an interventional radiologist with a particular interest in interventional oncology. I perform a wide range of procedures including ablations of the lung, liver, kidney, bone, and other areas in the body, chemoembolization, embolization, and radioembolization of tumors, biopsies, drainages, and interventions on both the venous and arterial sides. I was the first physician to perform SIR-spheres radioembolization for metastatic tumors to the liver within the VA hospital system, and have been recognized for my teaching of trainees. I perform research in areas of the application of big data to medicine as well as treatment of lung and liver cancers.

Geoffrey Sonn
Assistant Professor of Urology and, by courtesy, of Radiology at the Stanford University Medical Center
Current Research and Scholarly Interests My interest is in improving prostate cancer diagnosis through MRI and image-targeted prostate biopsy. In collaboration with radiologists at Stanford, we are working to define the optimal role of MRI in prostate cancer. We hope to improve cancer imaging to the point that some men with elevated PSA may safely avoid prostate biopsy. For those who need biopsy, we are evaluating novel MRI-US fusion targeted biopsy, a technique that greatly improves upon the conventional biopsy method.

Ryan Spitler
Deputy Director, Precision Health and Integrated Diagnostics Center, Rad/Precision Health and Integrated Diagnostics
Bio Dr. Spitler is the Deputy Director of the Precision Health and Integrated Diagnostics Center at Stanford University. He completed his Post Doctorial Research Fellowship (SCIT) at Stanford University School of Medicine, conducting research in the developing field of Magnetogenetics for remote controlled cellular reprogramming and developed smart MRI cell tracking tools for oncology cell tracking studies. He has designed numerous biological models, synthetic biology approaches and worked on the development of new technologies in a number of scientific areas ranging from medical devices to gene therapy. Prior to his position at Stanford, Dr. Spitler received his Ph.D. in Cellular and Developmental Biology at the Beckman Laser Institute at the University of California, Irvine. His research at the Beckman Laser Institute included developing and characterizing new nitric oxide-based drugs, laser, and LED-based multimodal wound healing therapies some of which are currently being used in the clinic as a result of his work.
Dr. Spitler received his Bachelor?s of Science degree in Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology from the University of California, Santa Cruz, where he worked in the area of structural biology. Over the past two decades he has held a number of academic and industrial positions and has served as an advisor or advisory board member for a number of Bay Area companies. Dr. Spitler is the recipient of the Stanford Cancer Imaging Fellowship Training Award, RSL Innovation Challenge Award, the Biophotas Research Fellowship, and the Stanford Center for Biomedical Imaging Achievement Award. -
