Chang Liu obtained his PhD in computer science from Wayne State University (Detroit, MI) in 2011, and his BS and MS in engineering from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (China) in 2003 and 2005, respectively.
He is currently serving as a radiation computer systems specialist at Henry Ford Hospital (Detroit, MI). As a specialist, he is continuously working to improve medicine and healthcare by creating more efficient and effective diagnosis tools and treatment procedures using state-of-the-art computer technologies. He was a major developer in the virtual colonoscopy project supported by GE (five groups worldwide were selectively invited to participate), and is leading a project supported by Varian regarding real delivered dose estimation during adaptive radiation therapy for prostate patients, which is one of the most challenging problems in radiation oncology. His main research interests include: computer animation, graphical user interfaces, visualization, 3D reconstruction, image segmentation, image registration, and machine learning. His publications and conference activities are mostly with the IEEE. He is also an active participant in the ACM and the AAPM.
Besides the interests mentioned above, he is enthusiastic about object-oriented programing (OOP). He has been working with C++ for more than 10 years, and is also fluent in MATLAB, Python, and C#. His teaching experience includes discrete math and OOP.
He has been a reviewer for Computing Reviews since 2012.
