Go to the sectionThe Istituto di Diagnostica Integrata della Svizzera Italiana brings together the four Clinica di Radiologia, Clinica di Medicina nucleare, Clinica di Medicina di Patologia and Clinica di Medicina di Laboratorio active in the various sites of the EOC's multisite hospital. The Institute was created to offer each patient a comprehensive and coordinated diagnostic pathway, in which specialists from different disciplines collaborate to provide rapid, precise and personalized answers.
Research at the Istituto di Diagnostica Integrata della Svizzera Italiana covers a wide range of activities from medical imaging to pathology, with a shared goal: to improve the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of patients through scientific and technological innovation.
In the field of imaging, research involves predictive imaging, radiomics, and the application of artificial intelligence to extract useful information from images for diagnosis and prognosis, particularly in oncology. These studies aim to identify new prognostic indicators and personalize diagnostic and therapeutic pathways.
The Institute participates in international studies and collaborates with universities and research centers, developing artificial intelligence algorithms applied to imaging and predictive models to support clinical decisions.
Research in pathology is oriented toward understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of cancer diseases, with a focus on the phenomena of sensitivity and resistance to chemo/radiotherapy treatments.
Scientific activity includes basic and clinical studies, genomic and proteomic analyses, and the development of digital diagnostic methods. The Institute actively collaborates with reference institutions such as the Istituto Oncologico della Svizzera Italiana, the Oncology Research Institute and the Institute for Research in Biomedicine, and supports numerous projects funded by national and cantonal foundations.
