Assist Prof Dr. Xian-Zheng Tan | Radiology Award | Best Researcher Award
Assist Prof Dr. Xian-Zheng Tan, Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan Normal University, China
Xian-Zheng Tan, and I serve as an associate professor and postgraduate supervisor in the radiology department at Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital, which is affiliated with Hunan Normal University’s First Affiliated Hospital in China. I am actively engaged in the field of abdominal diagnostic radiology, with a special focus on integrating new technologies such as radiomics and artificial intelligence (AI) into clinical practice.
Publication profile
Academic and Professional Background
I hold significant academic and professional credentials within the field of radiology. I am a member of the Youth Club of Chinese Society of Abdominal Radiology, a sub-society of the Chinese Society of Radiology. Additionally, I am a youth member of the Radiologist Association of Hunan Province. Over the years, I have been actively involved in research and have secured principal investigator roles for two scientific research grants, including the prestigious Natural Science Foundation of China and Natural Science Foundation of Hunan Province.
Research Focus
My primary scientific interests lie in abdominal diagnostic radiology, where I explore the application of advanced technologies like radiomics and AI. I am particularly passionate about developing prediction models and enhancing clinical diagnosis using these cutting-edge tools. This focus has led me to publish extensively, with approximately 23 scientific papers in renowned international journals such as Gastroenterology, Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Radiology, European Radiology, American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, and Kidney International.
Awards and Honors
I have been recognized for my contributions to medical research and academia with several prestigious awards and honors. These include being named a Huxiang Young Talent and receiving the Youth Medical Key Talents of Hunan Province award. I have also been honored with the Youth May Medal from the Hunan Provincial Health Commission and have achieved the Second Prize of Medical Technology of Hunan.
