Knowledge of abdominal surgical anatomy
No prior experience in computer vision is required, but participants should have a basic understanding of Python programming
Georganiseerd door:
- The Summer School provides participants with an overview of the fundamental concepts and techniques of computer vision applied to the field of surgery. The program aims to introduce participants to the potential applications of computer vision in surgical settings, and how it can be used to improve surgical performance and patient outcomes.
- The course will cover key topics in computer vision, such as image processing, feature extraction, and object recognition, with an emphasis on their application in surgery. Participants will learn about abdominal surgical anatomy, common imaging modalities used in surgery, such as endoscopy, laparoscopy, and robotics, dataset preparation, basic Python programming, and model construction and evaluation for object detection and segmentation. Throughout the course, participants will have the opportunity to work on hands-on exercises and projects that will help them develop practical skills in computer vision. The program will also feature case studies’ applications of computer vision in surgery, discussions of current challenges, and future directions in the field.
