49 WBIR 2022 methods, plus some more classical ones. Image registration is still a field where mathematical optimization plays an important role , and two of the three shortlisted presentations for Best Paper were deeply into the mathematics of image registration. The winner was ‘ Deformable Image Registration uncertainty quantificationusingdeep learning for dose accumulation in adaptive proton therapy ’ by Andreas Smolders . You will read a full review in our magazine of September. “ Andreas included uncertainty into the propagation of planning of radiotherapy, ” Mattias explains. “ This might sound very technical, but it was a nice link of something theoretically interesting – uncertainty estimation – that could potentially impact clinical applications. I think that was great. ” Alessa adds: “ We got much positive feedback that people enjoyed the conference in this hybrid setting. They interacted in Gather.Town, as well as at the posters and all the sessions. I think it’s a nice thing that people can also join virtually. ” The difference here to other conferences is that virtual participants were asked to present their work live , following feedback that people prefer this option to pre- recorded talks. Presenters were visible on the big screen next to their presentations. This set-up helped bridge the gap between the physical and virtual presenters and allowed remote participants to interact with and take questions from the in-person audience. In terms of the science on show, there was a mixture of learning-based Mattias Heinrich Alessa Hering
