MICCAI 2020

DAILY Mo n d a y Cerebral Aneurysm Detection (CADA) 33 problems in medicine . A key aim is to bring these communities closer by demonstrating to clinicians that they can trust in the science and technology. Leonid and Matthias hope and expect this to be the first iteration of the challenge, as there are still many questions left to answer and possible future directions to explore. “This challenge is based on analysis of 3D rotational angiography-based data , but clinicians work also with data based on MRI and computed tomography, so we need similar challenges focusing on other imaging modalities,” Leonid tells us. “Also, brain circulation is very complex, so for risk analysis it is vital to identify the location of an aneurysm in this complex system of vessels. This is another problem that we could look to solve in a future challenge.” Finally, they are keen to point out how impressed they have been with the number of participants and the quality of their results. “They are pretty much state-of-the-art solutions!” Matthias reveals. Leonid adds: “We know that participation is not usually grant funded and it is time-consuming, so we thank all participants for their efforts and for their impact on our challenge!” We invite all our readers to attend the CADA - Cerebral Aneurysm Detection Challenge meeting at MICCAI 2020 on Thursday at 14:00-18:00 (UTC).
