The Computer Assisted Navigation, Diagnosis and Intervention (CANDI) research group, led by Dr Yipeng Hu and Professor Dean Barratt, is a friendly and dynamic team comprising around 15 research staff and students who are committed to using medical imaging to improve disease diagnosis and the safety and accuracy of mínimally-invasive surgical and non-surgical interventions.
