<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">Both image quality and the visibility of clinical relevant objects are important issues in Medical Imaging. They constitute key elements for commercial success and can be significantly improved if suitable Image Processing techniques are used. Such improvements are useful for all imaging modalities but are particularly important for X-ray imaging in which case the X-ray dose should be made as low as possible.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">The work will benefit from strong interactions with other research projects and the existing technical experience within the MediSys group.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">In addition to technical and scientific skills and to creativity, the position requires human relation capabilities. The work will be conducted in collaboration with Development and Predevelopment teams of Philips Medical Systems in the Netherlands, the USA and Israel as well as with various clinical sites.</font>
