Executive Summary:
I am Dr. Lin Wei-Che, currently the Director of the Department of Diagnostic Radiology at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taiwan. I hold both an M.D. from Kaohsiung Medical University and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Imaging from National Yang-Ming University. With over two decades of clinical and academic experience, I specialize in neuroradiology, head and neck tumor treatment, and image-guided tumor ablation. I also lead the Thyroid, Head and Neck Ablation Center and serve as Vice Director of the Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine. My research integrates advanced imaging, interventional radiology, and AI applications, and I have published over 325 SCI-indexed papers. Additionally, I am actively involved in editorial work for journals such as the Korean Journal of Radiology and Taiwan Journal of Neurology. Through my leadership and international collaborations, I am dedicated to advancing precision diagnostics and minimally invasive therapies. I look forward to sharing our latest research findings at this conference and engaging with fellow experts around the world.
