The Statistical Atlases and Computational Modeling of the Heart (STACOM) workshop has been running annually at MICCAI since 2010. The 14th edition of STACOM workshop is going to be held in conjunction with the MICCAI 2023 in Vancouver, Canada. The STACOM workshop is aiming to create a collaborative forum for young/senior researchers (engineers, biophysicists, mathematicians) and clinicians, working on: statistical analysis of cardiac morphology and dynamics, computational modelling of the heart and fluid dynamics, data/models sharing, personalisation of cardiac electro-mechanical models, quantitative image analysis and translational methods into clinical practice.

In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has made significant advancements to improve the accessibility of CMR through accelerated acquisition and automated reporting. We will discuss the advancements of AI in the field of CMR, current challenges, and opportunities for future. Short bio:  Qian Tao is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Imaging Physics, Delft University of Technology. Her research interest includes cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), medical image analysis, and artificial intelligence (AI) for radiological applications. Dr. Tao has extensive experience collaborating with radiologists and cardiologists on clinical applications of CMR for diagnosis and intervention of cardiovascular disease patients. She serves on the Editorial Board of Radiology: Artificial Intelligence, and is a committee member of the Society of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Registry. |

Cardiac MRI Reconstruction Challenge
STACOM 2023 hosts a challenge on reconstruction of cardiac MRI (CMRxRecon).
Please note different timeline for this challenge:
- 14 July : abstract / placeholder submission on the EquinOCS portal
- 14 August : paper submission by email to the organisers
There are two tasks in this challenge: 1) cine MRI reconstruction, and 2) mapping reconstruction; both with different acceleration factors of 4x, 8x, and 10x.
Dataset: A multi-channel k-space dataset of 300 cases, including short-axis, 2/3/4-chamber long-axis cine and T1/T2 mapping, with approximately 500,000 images.
