** Please excuse multiple copies.** Dear RTK users,
We are organizing CoronARe: a Coronary Artery Reconstruction Challenge in conjunction with RAMBO [1] at MICCAI’17. CoronARe seeks to objectively compare current state-of-the-art methods as we believe that the availability of public benchmarks will contribute to drive forward this area. CoronARe ranks state-of-the-art methods in symbolic and tomographic coronary artery reconstruction from interventional C-arm rotational angiography. Specifically, we will benchmark the performance of the methods using accurately pre-processed data, and study the effects of imperfect pre-processing conditions (segmentation and background subtraction errors). The evaluation will be performed in a controlled environment using digital phantom images. For an in-depth description of the participation process kindly refer to: https://challenge.kitware.com/#challenge/58c9469ecad3a532cfa20dd3 The challenge results and respective winners will be presented during the RAMBO workshop on September 10th 2017. Submission to CoronARe will remain open after MICCAI’17, however, submissions later than September 5th, 2017 will not be considered for this competition. A reference to a previously published paper is sufficient for participation. We plan on inviting authors of successful methods to co-author a section in an article about the challenge, describing their competing method. Please feel free to forward this email to any colleague who might be interested. We are looking forward to your participation, Mathias Unberath (a), Serkan Çimen (b) Andreas Maier (a), Alejandro F Frangi (b) (a) Pattern Recognition Lab, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg (b) Center for Computational Imaging and Simulation Technologies in Biomedicine, University of Sheffield [1] https://sites.google.com/view/miccai-rambo2017
