Curriculum Vitae

Tobias Knopp received his Diplom degree in computer science in 2007 and his PhD in 2010, both from the University of Lübeck with highest distinction. For his PHD on the tomographic imaging method Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) he was awarded with the Klee award from the DGBMT (VDE) in 2011. From 2010 until 2011 he led the MAPIT project at the University of Lübeck and published the first scientific book on MPI. In 2011 he joined Bruker Biospin to work on the first commercially available MPI system. From 2012 until 2014 he worked at Thorlabs in the field of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) as a software developer. In 2014 he has been appointed as Professor for experimental Biomedical Imaging at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf and the Hamburg University of Technology.

Abstract: Growing radiologic workload and shortage of medical experts worldwide often lead to delayed reads or even unreported examinations, which bears severe risks for patient’s safety (1,2). The aim of our study was to evaluate, whether deep learning algorithms for an intelligent worklist prioritization might optimize the radiology workflow and could reduce report turnaround times (RTAT) for critical findings in chest radiographs (CXR), instead of reporting according to the First-In-First-Out-Principle (FIFO).
