The project, funded by Regione Campania, aims at the application of ultra-low-dose chest CT protocols and the use of artificial intelligence techniques for the early diagnosis of the COVID-19 disease. Another scope of the project is the creation of a hub within Regione Campania for the collection and the distribution of CT images from and to different imaging centers and hospitals. The result of the project can be used within Regione Campania to support, integrate and accelerate the diagnosis process of the COVID-19 pathology.

The project is focused on molecular imaging and radiomics for image processing in oncology and neurodegenerative diseases. The aims are to develop innovative methods for interpreting images with the support of bioinformatics systems. The methodology proposed To achieve this goal, it has been proposed a multi-modality diagnostic approach for the characterization of different tissue targets and integrating those data from the ones obtained with in vitro methods. For this purpose, an integrated biobank will be created. The clinical data, the biological samples and the images of patients affected by the diseases under examination will be stored.

The project is related to the intervention line "realization of Technological Platforms against cancer ". The project proposes an innovative integrated use of in situ radiomic and proteomic technologies (quantum tissue morpho-phenotyping), for the development of a non-invasive approaches for diagnosis, personalized prognosis, predictive response to cancer therapies. The technological platform that we intend to develop will allow, through the implementation of innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, not only the achievement of significant advances in terms of non-invasive pre-clinical diagnostics but also the implementation of innovative treatment strategies.

The present project aims to develop an innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for diseases of the Central Nervous and Vascular System. In particular, it will be focalised on neurodegenerative, psychiatric and brain tumors and to the aortic valve calcification disease (CAVD).All these diseases are related to age as a major risk factor for their development.

The aims of the project are to create a tracking system for the production processes of food products through information technology. This will allow the producers to be guaranteed of the trade mark “Made in Campania” origin and a suitable "labeling". This will protectd both the producer and the final consumer.

This aim will be possible with the use of specific ICT technologies such as NFC / RFID tags, through which the developed software will be able to track all the steps and provide an unique tracking within production, distribution and consumption.

The Research Infrastructure (IR) for Biomedical Imaging will offer technological services able to offer a wide range of research and development activities in oncology. The activities will go from basic biological image to human medical imaging, with the ambition to create a reference point not only on a regional basis but at an European and world-wide level.
