Welcome to CLINICCAI
Clinical Translation of Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Interventions
CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
You are kindly invited to submit your translational research on medical image computing, computer-assisted intervention, 3D-printing and healthcare robotics for presentation at CLINICCAI, a clinician-centered event at the 28th edition of the annual MICCAI conference.
The International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention (MICCAI) annually hosts over 2.500 biomedical scientists discussing cutting-edge methods and applications in medical imaging and computer-assisted intervention. The fifth edition of CLINICCAI - Clinical Translation of Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Interventions - at MICCAI2025 aims to attract healthcare practitioners interested in discussing how recent methodological breakthroughs in medical imaging, 3D-printing, robotics, deep learning, and other techniques can translate into value for patients and healthcare systems. One of main themes of this MICCAI event is "From Concept to Clinical” and there will be many important sessions regarding clinical translation of new technologies in main MICCAI meetings.
The event will take place in Daejeon, Republic of Korea, on September 25, 2025. While participating in CLINCCAI, healthcare practitioners are invited to explore the main program (September 24~26) and get inspired by the scientific sessions, workshops, and social activities of the biomedical conference.
Healthcare practitioners involved in multidisciplinary research teams or start-ups are strongly encouraged to submit original works focusing on preclinical or clinical translation.
Topics of interest to CLINICCAI include, but are not limited to:
- AI and other techniques for medical image analysis
- Image-guided intervention and surgery
- Surgical data science
- Digital pathology
- Computer-aided diagnosis
- Predictive modeling of risks, diseases, and patients' outcomes
- Preoperative planning and surgical guidance
- Immersive technologies in radiology and surgery (mixed, augmented, and virtual reality)
- Video-based assessment of surgical procedures
- Clinical decision support systems
Abstracts no longer than 600 words should be submitted via Microsoft's CMTplatform by April 15, 2025 according to guidelines available on the website. Submissions will be reviewed by physicians from the CLINICCAI committees and authors will be notified about the decision by May 31, 2025.
Presenting authors must be healthcare practitioners who commit to register for the conference and travel to Daejeon. All presentations will compete for the CLINICCAI Best Presentation Award, to be announced at the end of the event.
We look forward to welcoming you to CLINICCAI!
Regards
CLINICCAI's Organizing Committee
