Shaping the field of medical imaging: a fireside chat with Simon R Cherry and Xinchen Deng

Physics World reports on an upcoming fireside chat between two prominent medical imaging researchers. Simon Cherry, a Distinguished Research Professor at UC Davis and former editor-in-chief of Physics in Medicine & Biology, has spent decades advancing biomedical imaging techniques including PET scanners and total-body imaging systems. He'll be joined by Xinchen Deng, a diagnostic imaging physics resident at Ohio State whose research focuses on photon-counting CT for clinical applications and is a finalist for the journal's Early Career Researcher Award. The panel will explore major advances shaping medical physics research, what defines high-impact imaging studies, and strategies for early-career researchers to increase their publications' visibility and impact.
