The Wizardry of AI and Machine Learning in Cancer Imaging

Champalimaud Foundation, Lisbon. 18th to 20th June 2020

Message on behalf of Dr. Celso Matos and Prof. Dow-Mu Koh.

Due to the COVOD-19 pandemic and resulting global lockdown, 'The Wizardry of Artificial Intelligence 2.0: AI and Machine Learning in Cancer Imaging' meeting planned for June will be postponed. This course has demonstrated huge demand so it is absolutely our focus to deliver it in the spring/summer of 2021.

As this situation is continually unfolding, we are cautious about announcing new dates until we have a better idea of the future European event landscape. Many thanks for your understanding, and please bear with us. We wish you and your families the very best.

This is a follow-up meeting after our highly successful event in 2019 attended by over 400 delegates from over 30 countries. The aim of this meeting is to promote better understanding and application of AI and machine learning in cancer imaging; and provide a multidisciplinary forum for radiologists, technicians/ radiographers, scientists and industrial partners to discuss and interact. The meeting is organised jointly by the Champalimaud Foundation and the International Cancer Imaging Society.

This meeting highlights real-world translation in the development of infrastructure/ ecosystem/ data pipeline; as well as illustrative use-cases emerging from clinical needs. Controversies and advances in AI and machine learning approaches? will be presented and discussed. A industrial forum provides the opportunity to hear from scan manufacturer, data science companies, health organisations to understand the development and obtaining regulatory approval of tools for clinical benefit. The content will be a delivered by a panel of invited international expert faculty.

For the 2020 meeting, we will be soliciting scientific abstracts for a scientific session. In addition, we will also invite the submission of fresh ideas for an incubator session, for which the experts will be able to provide feedback and mentoring. The dateline for abstract submission is 3rd April 2020.

There will be two hands-on workshops targeted towards radiologists, who will be able to learn first-hand the concepts and application of AI and machine learning; as well as understand how to establish and use a radiomics pipeline.

This is a commercial-free meeting that is free to attend, in line with the educational mission of the International Cancer Imaging Society and the Champalimaud Foundation.

Who should attend?

Radiologists, technicians/ radiographers, scientists, industrial partners and all who are interest in the growth and development of AI and machine learning in cancer imaging.

What are the learning objectives?

1) To understand the real world translation of how imaging departments can prepare for AI
2) To review key AI and machine techniques for cancer imaging
3) To learn advances and controversies in AI and machine learning
4) To understand the perspectives from industry and health policy makers
5) To learn from exemplars of clinical use cases and lessons learnt in their development

On behalf of the Champalimaud Foundation and the International Cancer Imaging Society, we would like to invite you to attend this special focus multidisciplinary meeting on the development and application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in Cancer Imaging.

AI and ML are set to have a deep impact on how radiologists, as well as clinicians, may work in the future. However, there has been limited opportunities for imagers, scientists, clinicians and industrial partners to interact, so as to understand clinical needs, to identify common goals and to prioritise developments.

This meeting will bring together specialists in oncology, cancer imaging, AI and ML, as well as industry members to present and discuss these issues. We welcome your participation in our program and look forward to see you in Lisbon!

Celso Matos, Dow-Mu Koh and Fred Prior
