In addition, the following information is useful for first time visitors to the hospital:

Agenda

To brainstorm computational methods for radiation oncology between UNC, NA-MIC, BWH.


  • 8am: Breakfast
  • 8:30-10:30am: UNC -presentations about capabilities of current projects, short term and longer term plans
    • Julian Rosenman PLUNC 18 minutes
    • Gregg Tracton Software for PLUNC, segmentation, registration 10 minutes
    • Stephen Pizer Registration by regression (2 methods), Segmentation via posterior optimization, training probability distributions on s reps and quantile functions, segmentation via correspondence-preserving warps, ant aliasing 23 minutes
    • Sha Chang Nanotube imaging, incl. for IGRT 10 minutes
    • Brandon Frederick Iterative tomographic reconstruction, CTs at treatment time, gpu’s 15 minutes
    • Derek Merck 3D visualization via model-guided rendering, 3D visualization in PLUNC for RTP 15 minutes
    • Ilknur Kabul Texturing of surfaces, onion skins, and cut planes; interpolation of textures 10 minutes
    • Hina Shah Registration of endoscopic cine and CT of throat,fused displays of these two registered sources 8 minutes
    • Ron Alterovitz Planning for brachytherapy with curved needles, FEM software 12 minutes
  • 10:30 am: Break
  • 10:50am-12:10pm: NA-MIC/Harvard presentations about capabilities of current projects, short term and longer term plans
    • Slicer3 to Slicer 4, Radiation Therapy support today, and plans for the next year (Steve Pieper) (15 minutes)
    • SPARKit, Canadian grant for providing open source software platform for radiotherapy, potentially based on NA-MIC Kit (Andras Lasso) (10minutes)
    • Head and Neck Cancer NA-MIC DBP (Greg Sharp) (15 minutes)
    • Gynecologic Cancer Brachytherapy Plans (Tina Kapur) (15 minutes)
    • Shadie, shading language for volume visualization(Hanspeter Pfister, Milos Hasan, George Chen, John Wolfgang) (20 minutes)
  • 12:10pm pm: Lunch
  • 1pm: Intro of afternoon objectives (Julian Rosenman)
  • 1:10pm: What UNC/Boston system combinations ought to be developed -- the Boston perspective (Tina Kapur)
  • 1:30pm: What Boston/UNC system combinations ought to be developed -- the UNC perspective (Steve Pizer)
  • 2:00-2:30pm: Comments from Kitware about their capabilities relevant to proposed combinations (Brad Davis)
  • 2:30pm: Break and subgroup formation (e.g., merging surgical and radiation treatment planning system; 3D visualization software for treatment planning; image analysis software for treatment planning)
  • 3:00-4pm: Subgroups sketch out mechanics for collaborations
  • 4:00-5:0pm: Summary: what we do next?
