The kick-off meeting of AutoPiX happened on Dec. 10th 2024 in the Josephinum in the heart of Vienna. The project will connect imaging and AI to improve the care of patients with arthritis. It will develop novel technologiy in automated image analysis, therapy monitoring and prediciton, and the creation of foundation models to boost science and care in the area of arthritis. 

On Nov 4th, 2024, the AI in Cancer Imaging Symposium brought together AI, Radiology, and Privacy Law in an interdisciplinary discussion joined by Prof. Guillaume Chassagnon from Paris, and Prof. Griet Verhenneman from Ghent.

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) in preterm neonates presents a high risk for developing posthemorrhagic ventricular dilatation. This study by Gabriel Vignolle et al. identified 41 significant independent protein markers predicting this condition. 

 

We are happy to be part of the first Data Science Vienna Poster Workshop on Oct 1st 2024 at the Vienna Sternwarte. With over 60 registered participants it will be an inspiring event for the Viennese community.

CIR is coorganizing the Pixel Pandemonium at ECR'25. It will host cutting edge machine learning demos in the area of radiology, and bring together the medical imaging, machine learning, and image computing communities. 

It is a collaboration of the European Society of Radiology, the European Institute for Biomedical Imaging Research Joint Initiative on AI for Medical Imaging (AI4MI).

Submit your demo here, until December 2024: https://www.eibir.org/pixelpandemonium/

New paper by Thomas Roetzer-Pejrimovsky et al. shows how deep learning can map the spatial distribution of transcriptional subtypes and particularly regions in digital pathology data. The results demonstrate how machine learning enables image mining in brain cancer. 

We are thrilled to co-organize two significant events at the international conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI) in Marrakesh on October 6, 2024: the Fetal Brain Tissue Segmentation and Annotation (FeTA) 2024 and the 9th workshop on Perinatal, Preterm, and Pediatric Image Analysis (PIPPI).

For more information on FeTA, visit the FeTA Challenge 2024. Details about PIPPI can be found at the PIPPI Workshop 2024.

A new editorial reviewing the role of AI in integrated diagnostics, and multidisciplinary team work. Published in Radiology Jul 30th 2024.

Today at CVPR 2024: Visual Anomaly Detection Workshop! 

Anomaly detection is crucial for identifying unusual patterns and potential issues in data, making it essential for applications in security, healthcare, and beyond. At the VAND 2.0 Workshop, co-organized by Philipp, top researchers and industry experts are gathering to share insights and innovations in visual anomaly and novelty detection.

Live from CVPR 2024, Seattle, WA
Dive into cutting-edge research, network with fellow professionals, and see how our lab is contributing to transformative advancements in anomaly detection (https://sites.google.com/view/vand-2-0-cvpr-2024/home).

The international ARTEMIS project had its kick-off meeting on February 7th, 2024. It will develop novel technology to integrate machine learning and simulation methods for virtual twins in the diagnosis and treatment of fatty liver disease. 

The Walter Siegenthaler Gesellschaft publishes a position paper with CIR contributions on the topic of "Digitalisierung der Medizin für das Patienten- und Gemeinwohl“.

Workshop co-organized with the US National Academy of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine on Engaging Scientists to Prevent Harmful Exploitation of Advanced Data Analytics and Biological Data.

The CD Lab MLPI will develop novel machine learning methods to assess and predict the response to treatment in lung cancer, and will investigating the bridge of imaging, disease biology and legal environment of using AI in cancer care. (Image: MUW)
