About the Lab

Professor Ju-Il Park's research lab specializes in interventional radiology and image-guided therapy, with a strong focus on advancing minimally invasive treatments for liver diseases and uterine fibroids. The lab develops innovative medical imaging and computational techniques—such as physics-informed deep learning models (e.g., PhysRFANet)—to enhance real-time thermal ablation monitoring and treatment personalization. Research also extends to optimizing embolization strategies for hepatocellular carcinoma and improving stent management in post-surgical pancreatic fistula. The lab integrates clinical radiology with artificial intelligence and smart control systems to improve therapeutic outcomes and energy efficiency in medical interventions.

SJR Q1Engineering Applications of Artificial IntelligenceOA

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive technique that is widely used to ablate solid tumors. Achieving precise personalized treatment requires feedback information on in situ thermal effects induced by RFA. Although computer simulations facilitate the prediction of electrical and thermal phenomena associated with RFA, their practical implementation in clinical settings is hindered by their high computational demands. In this paper, we propose a physics-guided radiofrequency ablati

Background A diverse clinical course after the spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) renders nonstandardized treatment protocols. Purpose To evaluate clinical course and role of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) in patients with rupture of HCC. Materials and methods This retrospective study included 127 patients who were treated for ruptured HCC at single institution between 2005 and 2014. After multidisciplinary discussion, patients underwent medical management, TAE, eme
