From MICCAI Algorithms to Clinical Translational Tools: The NA-MIC Platform

Outline: MICCAI offers a window on the technological breakthroughs in medical image computing, computer assisted interventions and surgical robotics that will allow for revolutionary progress in clinical care. A critical step to maximize the long-term positive impact of MICCAI algorithms is to foster their deployment, validation and concrete use by the clinical research community for whom they were developed. The objective of the tutorial is to introduce the challenges inherent in delivering advanced medical imaging technologies (image processing, analysis and interventional capabilities) to end users for clinical translational research and to present solutions available in the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC) open-source software toolkit. The day begins with an overview of the software components of the NA-MIC kit, followed by multiple example applications in current use for clinical research, with a final optional hands-on tutorial session that guides participants through the process of building, testing and deploying an exemplar algorithm using the NA-MIC open-source software toolkit.

Through concrete examples drawn from the translational research efforts of NA-MIC, this tutorial provides insights on practical approaches for bridging the gap between the scientific advances made by the biomedical imaging community and their widespread use in the clinical research community. By the end of the day course participants will know how to use the NA-MIC kit to facilitate greater use of their own algorithms by clinical end users.
