About the Lab
Professor Ok Hee Woo's research lab specializes in diagnostic radiology and medical imaging, with a focus on thoracic and musculoskeletal radiology. The lab investigates advanced imaging techniques, including CT and MRI, to improve the preoperative prediction of disease progression—particularly in aggressive cancers like triple-negative breast cancer and rare soft tissue sarcomas. The lab also explores radiological-pathological correlations in interstitial lung diseases and neurogenic tumors, aiming to enhance diagnostic accuracy and guide clinical decision-making. Their work integrates multiparametric and radiomic features to develop predictive models for disease outcomes.

15To evaluate diagnostic efficacy of deep learning (DL)-based automated bone mineral density (BMD) measurement for opportunistic screening of osteoporosis with routine computed tomography (CT) scans. A DL-based automated quantitative computed tomography (DL-QCT) solution was evaluated with 112 routine clinical CT scans from 84 patients who underwent either chest (N:39), lumbar spine (N:34), or abdominal CT (N:39) scan. The automated BMD measurements (DL-BMD) on L1 and L2 vertebral bodies from DL-Q
BACKGROUND: In diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) of breast MRI, simultaneous multislice acceleration techniques can be used for readout-segmented echo planar imaging (rs-EPI) to shorten the scan time. PURPOSE: To compare the image quality, apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value, and scan time of rs-EPI and simultaneous multislice rs-EPI (SMS rs-EPI) sequences. STUDY TYPE: Retrospective. SUBJECTS: In all, 134 consecutive women (mean age: 55.3 years) with invasive breast cancer who underwent pr

A predictive model incorporating breast MRI-derived multiparametric and radiomic features may be valuable in predicting ALNM preoperatively in patients with TNBC.
The purpose of this pictorial essay is to illustrate the radiological and pathological findings of a wide spectrum of neurogenic tumours of the thorax according to their anatomical location and histological subtype. Knowledge of these findings will narrow the differential diagnosis and provide guidance for patient management.
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour (MPNST) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma. In particular, primary MPNST of the breast is extremely rare. We report a case of a giant malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour involving the entire right breast, which was not associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) or previous radiation therapy. A CT scan showed a huge heterogeneous soft tissue mass with well-enhanced nodules at its periphery and low-density internal necrosis, which was confirmed by modi
This study was done to demonstrate the computed tomography (CT) and pathologic findings of the sequential changes for experimental pulmonary fat embolism (PFE), and to correlate the CT and pathologic findings of rabbit lung. PFE was induced by an intravenous injection of 0.2 mL linoleic acid in 24 rabbits. The rabbits were divided into 4 groups of 6 rabbits each. CT scans were obtained sequentially at 2 hr (n= 24), day 1 (n=18), day 3 (n=12) and day 7 (n=6) after fat embolization. The pathologic
Among artificial intelligence–missed invasive breast cancers on mammograms, the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–enriched subtype had the lowest false-negative rate, and dense breasts, nonmammary zone locations, architectural distortions, and amorphous microcalcifications were reasons for misses.
