About

Mikkel Werge Olsen is a rising researcher at the intersection of biomedical engineering and artificial intelligence, with a primary focus on advancing needle-based medical procedures through optical imaging and machine learning. His most cited work, "Needle Tip Tracking Based on Optical Imaging and AI" (2024), addresses a critical challenge in minimally invasive interventions: the precise navigation of needles to deep anatomical targets, such as femoral vessels in the groin. By integrating real-time optical imaging with AI-driven tracking, Olsen’s research aims to reduce reliance on specialized manual skill and extensive training, potentially improving safety and accessibility in procedures like catheterizations and biopsies. Though early in his career, with 3 citations to date, his work has already garnered attention for its practical clinical relevance and innovative fusion of computer vision with interventional medicine. Olsen’s contributions stand out for their potential to democratize complex needle insertions, making them more reliable for practitioners at all skill levels. As he continues to develop and validate these technologies, his research promises to shape the future of image-guided therapy.
