== '''Background''' ==

='''Projects'''=
Founded in 2005, the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NAMIC), was chartered with building a computational infrastructure to support biomedical research as part of the NIH funded [http://www.ncbcs.org/ NCBC] program. The work of this alliance has resulted in important progress in algorithmic research, an open source medical image computing platform [http://www.slicer.org 3D Slicer], built  using [http://www.vtk.org VTK], [http://www.itk.org ITK], [http://www.cmake.org CMake], and [http://www.cdash.org CDash], and the creation of a community of algorithm researchers, biomedical scientists and software engineers who are committed to open science. This community meets twice a year in an event called Project Week.
 
  
[[Engineering:Programming_Events|Project Week]] is a semi-annual event which draws researchers from around the world. As of August 2014, it is a MICCAI endorsed event. The participants work collaboratively on open-science solutions for problems that lie on the interfaces of the fields of computer science, mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, and medicine. In contrast to conventional conferences and workshops the primary focus of the Project Weeks is to make progress in projects (as opposed to reporting about progress). The objective of the Project Weeks is to provide a venue for this community of medical open source software creators. Project Weeks are open to all, are publicly advertised, and are funded through fees paid by the attendees. Participants are encouraged to stay for the entire event.
+
* Note: Please use this [[2016_Summer_Project_Week_Template | template]] to create project pages
  
Project Week activities: Everyone shows up with a project. Some people are working on the platform. Some people are developing algorithms. Some people are applying the tools to their research problems. We begin the week by introducing projects and connecting teams. We end the week by reporting progress. In addition to the ongoing working sessions, breakout sessions are organized ad-hoc on a variety of special topics. These topics include: discussions of software architecture, presentations of new features and approaches and topics such as Image-Guided Therapy.
+
=== Worldwide Ultrasound Navigation ===
 +
Over the last several PWs, an international group has emerged for collaborative specification and development of ultrasound-based navigation for surgical and interventional radiology applications. This group represents the leadership of ultrasound navigation technology from Queens University (PERK Lab, PLUS: Andras Lasso, Tamas Ungi, Csaba Pinter, Gabor Fichtinter), Montreal Neurologic Institute (Simon Drouin), Brigham and Women's Hospital/HMS (William Wells, Steve Pieper, Sarah Frisken), Robarts Research Institute, Western University (Terry Peters, Adam Rankin), Trondheim University and SINTEF (CustusX: Christian Askeland, Frank Lindseth).
  
Several funded projects use the Project Week as a place to convene and collaborate. These include [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://www.ncigt.org/ NCIGT], [http://qiicr.org/ QIICR], [http://ocairo.technainstitute.com/open-source-software-platforms-and-databases-for-the-adaptive-process/ OCAIRO], and [https://www.ncigt.org/IGTWiki/index.php/Projects/IGTWeb:R25 NCI Funded Image-Guided Fellowship Program].

 +
==Location==
 +
*'''Location:''' Heidelberg, Germany.
 +
**'''Getting to Heidelberg:''' Most will fly into Frankfurt Main International (FRA). At the airport look for "long distance trains". There you can buy a ticket from the machine to Heidelberg Hauptbahnhof (main station), around EUR 25. It usually takes less than an hour, with a change in Mannheim to a regional train. https://www.bahn.de . If you arrive on Sunday you can take a bus from the station to the Old Town or where your hotel is. Heidelberg is pretty small, look for directions on Google Maps. If you arrive on Monday see below on how to get to DKFZ directly.
 +
**'''Monday''' at German Cancer Research Center - DKFZ
 +
*** Enter through the main lobby ( just north of https://goo.gl/maps/e3ZbcsM5KC82, you can't miss it, it's the tallest building on campus with a big "dkfz." on top). The meeting room is on the 8th floor (H824, "Glaskasten", "glass box"). We will leave some instructions how to get there at the reception. The meeting time in the lobby will be 8:45am for those who wish to be at the meeting room by 9am.  Official activities will start at noon with lunch.
 +
*** To get to DKFZ in the morning you can use the Google Maps link above, public transport information is available there. For people staying in the Old Town,  near Bismarckplatz or coming from the station it will be most likely Bus #32, exit at stop "Chirurgische Klinik", which is the second one after crossing the Neckar river. More detailed timetables at [http://fahrplanauskunft.vrn.de/vrn/XSLT_TRIP_REQUEST2?language=en the local transportation services VRN]. If you are up early there is also a nice [https://goo.gl/maps/SRRG6x7KDNU2 walk along the river].

Projects

  • Note: Please use this template to create project pages

Worldwide Ultrasound Navigation

Over the last several PWs, an international group has emerged for collaborative specification and development of ultrasound-based navigation for surgical and interventional radiology applications. This group represents the leadership of ultrasound navigation technology from Queens University (PERK Lab, PLUS: Andras Lasso, Tamas Ungi, Csaba Pinter, Gabor Fichtinter), Montreal Neurologic Institute (Simon Drouin), Brigham and Women's Hospital/HMS (William Wells, Steve Pieper, Sarah Frisken), Robarts Research Institute, Western University (Terry Peters, Adam Rankin), Trondheim University and SINTEF (CustusX: Christian Askeland, Frank Lindseth).

Simplified Human-Computer Interactions for Intra-Operative Usage

This theme focuses on infrastructure for simplified human-computer interactions for intra-operative usage. This includes Guidelets, simplified graphical user interfaces that can access the same backend as 3D Slicer; as well as interfaces for virtual reality/augmented reality devices from the consumer market that are that are improving by leaps and bounds and show promise for surgical use.

Machine Learning for IGT

This theme applies concepts from machine learning to image-guided therapy, including the application of convolutional neural networks for segmentation of mechanically implanted devices during surgery, and the use of Gaussian processes for estimation of uncertainty in image-fusion.

IGT Other

Informatics

This theme deals with creating data formats to enable medical image informatics. Led by the QIICR project, the results will be made available in the DICOM for Quantitative Imaging (DCMQI) Library for sharing quantitative image-processing results in a standardized way.

Infrastructure

Improvements to the core functionality of widely used open source tools is an on-going theme.

Tutorial

Creation of tutorials and documentation is an on-going theme.

Logistics

  • Dates: Monday June 20th to Saturday June 25th, 2016, with one day break on Tuesday June 21st to attend IPCAI.

Location

  • Location: Heidelberg, Germany.
    • Getting to Heidelberg: Most will fly into Frankfurt Main International (FRA). At the airport look for "long distance trains". There you can buy a ticket from the machine to Heidelberg Hauptbahnhof (main station), around EUR 25. It usually takes less than an hour, with a change in Mannheim to a regional train. https://www.bahn.de . If you arrive on Sunday you can take a bus from the station to the Old Town or where your hotel is. Heidelberg is pretty small, look for directions on Google Maps. If you arrive on Monday see below on how to get to DKFZ directly.
    • Monday at German Cancer Research Center - DKFZ
      • Enter through the main lobby ( just north of https://goo.gl/maps/e3ZbcsM5KC82, you can't miss it, it's the tallest building on campus with a big "dkfz." on top). The meeting room is on the 8th floor (H824, "Glaskasten", "glass box"). We will leave some instructions how to get there at the reception. The meeting time in the lobby will be 8:45am for those who wish to be at the meeting room by 9am. Official activities will start at noon with lunch.
      • To get to DKFZ in the morning you can use the Google Maps link above, public transport information is available there. For people staying in the Old Town, near Bismarckplatz or coming from the station it will be most likely Bus #32, exit at stop "Chirurgische Klinik", which is the second one after crossing the Neckar river. More detailed timetables at the local transportation services VRN. If you are up early there is also a nice walk along the river.
    • Tuesday there is no organized Project Week activity due to IPCAI @ CARS
      • Suggested place for meetings is the Marstall student center (map)
    • Wednesday-Saturday at the Congress Hall of CARS.
  • REGISTRATION: Please register for the CARS conference at http://www.cars-int.org/cars_2016/registration.html
  • Registration Fee: Euro 650 (after April 26, 2016)
  • Hotel: After registration, you can book hotels using the CARS organization at http://germany.nethotels.com/info/heidelberg/events/cars/default_en.htm or on your own. Please remember that Project Week starts on Monday June 20th, even though the formal CARS/IPCAI program starts a day later, so you will need to pay attention while booking the hotel room.

Preparatory Conference Calls:

    • 800-501-8979. The pin is 7327389. (International dialing instructions are available here)
    • Call #1 Tuesday, May 10, 3pm Boston time.
    • Call #2 Tuesday, May 17, 3pm Boston time.
    • Call #3 Tuesday, May 31, 9am Boston time.
    • Call #4 Tuesday, Jun 7, 9am Boston time.
    • Call #5 Tuesday, Jun 14, 9am Boston time.
