Position Description


KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, is looking for a post-doc in medical image processing for a period of 18 months.

Our group has in the last few years developed advanced methods for analyzing trabecular bone structure from images acquired in vivo (CBCT and HR-pQCT) and in vitro (micro-CT), including different histomorphometric parameters in gray-scale, different fabric tensors and classification of different types of trabeculae. Following this line, you will develop new methods for analysis of trabecular bone and cortical bone from these images, with a special focus on efficiency, in order to make it suitable for clinical use. You will also be involved in validation of these methods in clinical and pre-clinical studies and in validating the new methods by correlating them with mechanical data obtained through FEM simulations.

Applications (deadline April 20, 2015) must only be sent via the on-line application system as described in the official announcement:
