Mission
The Computational Radiology Laboratory (CRL) is a computer science oriented laboratory in the Department of Radiology at Children’s Hospital. Faculty have appointments at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and work closely with colleagues at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital.
The CRL was founded in 2001 with the mission of improving our understanding of the structure and function of the brain and other organs of the human body, in order to improve our capacity to diagnose and treat disease. Members of the CRL achieve this by developing novel technologies and computational modeling strategies for understanding and interpreting radiological images.
The CRL has dedicated facilities, office space, computer and peripheral equipment, as well as access to departmental resources including high performance supercomputers, more than 50 workstations and servers, a high performance network and medical imaging devices including CT and 1.5T and 3.0T MRI scanners.
