Dr. Sylvia Plevritis is Assistant Professor of Radiology with a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering (1992) and a Masters degree in Health Services Research (1996) from Stanford University. Dr. Plevritis’ imaging research background includes quantitation and analysis of MRI spectroscopic images of brain tumors and data mining algorithms of MRI-detected breast lesions. Dr. Plevritis is also trained in decision analytic modeling of disease outcomes. She has been applying her unique multi-disciplinary background to the development and statistical validation of data-driven complex in-silico models of cancer progression for the purposes of predicting the long-term health benefits of new cancer imaging technologies. Sylvia is the PI of the ICBP program, chair of the Quantitative Core of ICMIC, PI of the CISNET breast and lung cancer programs, and co-leader of the Bionformatics/Biocomputation efforts of Stanford’s Cancer Center P30 initiative.
