About Youwei Chen

Mission Bridging cutting-edge research and everyday life, I leverage AI to advance human health—and inspire others to do the same. Who I am AI/Data Scientist & Project Lead & AI Engineer @ Perimeter Medical Imaging AI Edmonton-based, collaborating daily with Toronto tech HQ & Dallas business HQ. What I’m building with the team • Ultra-high-resolution OCT pipeline for the S- and B-Series devices—10 × sharper than X-ray/ultrasound and 100 × MRI, scanning an entire margin in < 2 min and completing the OR workflow in ≈ 15 min. • Next-gen AI margin-assessment module (evolving from ImgAssist) now in development, targeting to match or exceed early S-Series results that reduced re-excisions to 5.6 % vs ~20 % nationally. • ImgClear image-enhancement algorithm—co-developer of the first commercial install; achieved 4.4 × SNR and 28 % faster scans in internal testing. • Deployment & compliance: migrating the stack to C++/CUDA with cloud-based CI/CD and steering ISO 13485 / FDA alignment. Track record • MSc (Servier Lab, Mazankowski Heart Institute): published cGAN OCT-denoising method. • Perimeter internship: co-invented real-time imaging algorithm; 3 × inference speed, U.S. patent filed.
