Lea Marie Pehrson

Lea Marie Pehrson is a Guest Researcher at the Department of Computer Science, Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen, with clinical affiliation at Region Hovedstaden (Copenhagen University Hospital). Her work bridges artificial intelligence and medical imaging, focusing on developing computational tools for radiology and oncology applications.

Her research interests include:

• Medical Image Analysis
• Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
• Machine Learning for Radiology
• Computational Modelling of Tumors
• Natural Language Processing for Clinical Reports
• Deep Learning-based Decision Support Systems

Recent publications reveal a concentrated effort in applying deep learning to solve clinical imaging challenges, particularly in tumor volume delineation for radiation therapy and multilingual processing of radiology reports. Her work emphasizes systematic validation of AI tools through inter-observer agreement studies and real-world clinical impact assessments, with strong focus on Danish healthcare contexts and thoracic imaging.

Dr. Pehrson operates within the Image Analysis, Computational Modelling and Geometry research group at the University of Copenhagen, maintaining active collaboration with clinicians at Region H to translate AI research into practical clinical decision support systems.
