ENTEC – TAKE YOUR EUS PRACTICE TO THE NEXT LEVEL!

ENTEC – TAKE YOUR EUS PRACTICE TO THE NEXT LEVEL!

Sign Up for one of the 2024 Courses organized by the IHU Strasbourg!

The Institute of Image-Guided Surgery (IHU Strasbourg) continues to develop its training offer in Therapeutic Endoscopic Ultrasound (TEUS) and invites you to attend one of the 2024 courses.

Therapeutic Endoscopic Ultrasound (TEUS) has been established as a new reference technique for the minimally invasive treatment of digestive pathologies. This has led to a growing need for specialized training of echoendoscopists wishing to work on models that reflect the reality of their clinical practice.

The IHU Strasbourg offers advanced level courses where practical focus is fundamental. These courses are intended for experienced echoendoscopists who would like to train in TEUS with internationally renowned experts. Training is based on pathological in-vivo models elaborated to mimic the different pathologies encountered and to facilitate learning how to treat these using Endoscopic Ultrasound.

In 2024, the IHU Strasbourg is proposing ENTEC-IHU, a unique 2-day course with practical training by a panel of international experts. Participants will benefit from 7 hours of Hands-on training with simulated models and get to practice up to 10+ procedures. Training sessions take place in an exceptional multimodal imaging platform (scanner CT, angio CT, IRM and C-ARM) where participants are able to access the latest generation equipment in EUS.

Objectives

  • Progress from Diagnostic EUS to Therapeutic EUS.
  • To understand the full potential of Therapeutic EUS in the daily practice of endoscopy.
  • 100% hands-on training on original and realistic in-vivo models.

7 hours of Hands-on training – Up to 10 procedures:

  • Multiple simple and complex cystogastrostomies – cold and hot systems
  • Gallbladder drainage
  • CBD gastrostomy (Choledochal drainage)
  • Radiofrequency ablation
  • FNB & FNA
  • Portal pressure measurement
  • G-G anastomosis
  • Fiducial placement
  • Glue and coil embolization
  • Hepaticogastrostomy (optional)
  • Neurolysis of celiac ganglia
  • Microbiopsy sampling

MICCAI2022: IHU HIGHLIGHTS

MICCAI2022: IHU HIGHLIGHTS

MICCAI AE-CAI 2022 – Outstanding paper award to IHU authors

Congratulations to IHU’s APEUS team. The authors of the paper* entitled ‘Automatic pancreas anatomical part detection in endoscopic ultrasound videos’ won the OUTSTANDING PAPER AWARD, which was collected by Adrien Meyer, AI Research engineer at IHU, at the MICCAI AE-CAI 2022 workshop held in Singapore on 18 September.  ​​​​​​​

The joint 16th AE-CAI, 9th CARE and 5th OR 2.0 workshop brought together researchers, clinicians, and medical companies that are working on advancing the field of Medical Imaging and Augmented Reality, Augmented Environments for Computer Assisted Interventions (AE-CAI), Computer Assisted and Robotic Endoscopy (CARE) and Context-Aware Operating Theaters (OR 2.0).

*The paper was co-authored by Antoine Fleurentin, Jean-Paul Mazellier, Adrien Meyer, Julieta Montanelli, Lee Swanstrom, Benoit Gallix, Leonardo Sosa Valencia, and Nicolas Padoy. It was presented at the workshop by Adrien Meyer.

Second edition of CLINICCAI during MICCAI 2022 conference

The second edition of CLINICCAI (Clinical translation of Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention) was held in Singapore, after a successful first edition organized during MICCAI-2021 in Strasbourg. CLINICCAI-2022 took place at the Resorts World Convention Centre as part of the core program of the MICCAI 2022 conference, with an active participation of the IHU Strasbourg’s team as part of the Organizing Committee. The event was conceived to provide a platform for healthcare practitioners working on translational research in the areas of MICCAI to present their work and to enable and promote networking among biomedical scientists and clinicians.

A total of 20 oral presentations were selected among 31 submissions (from 13 countries) according to their relevance, novelty, and their potential for clinical translation. More than 60 healthcare professionals registered and traveled from 14 countries to present and participate on-site, with over 550 total attendees throughout the conference.

An international jury presided by Prof. Jason Chan (Chinese University of Hong Kong), and including experts from UK (Heike Grabsch), Switzerland (Inti Zlobec), and France (Juan Verde), selected the best three presentations and delivered the IHU best presentation award to: Jorge Corral Acero, Pieter De Baker, and Fiona Kolbinger. Congratulations to them!

We are anxiously awaiting the confirmation of the third edition of CLINICCAI, expected to take place next year in October, in Vancouver, Canada, during the 26th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI-2023) with the support of the IHU Strasbourg and its team!

The 1st Surgical Data Science (SDS) Summer School – 18-22 July, 2022

The 1st Surgical Data Science (SDS) Summer School – 18-22 July, 2022

We are very happy to announce the 1st Surgical Data Science (SDS) Summer School to be held in Strasbourg, France, from 18th – 22nd July 2022.

Logo Edu4SDS, Surgical Data Science - Summer School

Recognizing the surge in Surgical Data Science research and the need for effective clinical translation, the SDS summer school aims to promote research and innovation of clinical value by educating clinicians and computer scientists on respective contexts, needs, tools and methodologies.

This first school organized by the Institute of Image-Guided Surgery, IHU-Strasbourg, and the University of Strasbourg will be focusing on endoscopic video analysis. Leading clinical and computers science experts from top institutions will cover subjects related to the clinical use of endoscopy and endoscopic video analysis, spanning from endoscopic instruments and data annotations all the way to advanced deep learning algorithms and the design of clinical translation studies.

Short online lectures on fundamentals of endoscopy and computer science will be freely accessible starting from 15th of March 2022 at: https://edu4sds.eve-evolving-education.eu/. Upon completing these fundamentals, prospective participants can apply to the onsite summer school consisting of a series of lectures, hands-on labs, and group projects. Twenty (20) selected computer scientists and clinicians will have the opportunity join us at Institute of Image-Guided Surgery, IHU-Strasbourg, from 18th – 22nd July 2022 to work in a truly multidisciplinary environment with unique clinical and computer science resources to come up with novel ideas and data science solutions of clinical value.

We invite early-career computer science and clinical researchers who are interested in diving into the exciting world of Surgical Data Science to visit www.edu4sds.org, review the program and learn more about the registration.

Applications close on 25th April 2022. Places are limited so early application is advised.
Best wishes,

The Surgical Data Science Summer School organizing committee Pietro Mascagni, Alexandros Karargyris, Vinkle Srivastav, Silvana Perretta, Nicolas Padoy.
