The focus of this Medical Imaging Summer School was to provide insights into the various interfaces between medical imaging and Deep Learning, based on the shared broad categories of medical image computing, computer-aided image interpretation and disease classification.
The course contained a combination of in-depth tutorial-style lectures on fundamental state-of-the-art concepts, followed by accessible yet advanced research lectures using examples and applications. A broad overview of the field was given, and guided reading groups complemented lectures. The course was delivered by world renowned experts from both academia and industry, who are working closely at the interface of medical imaging/Deep Learning.
