🎉 *CALL FOR PAPERS - AIRCAD 2025 @ICIAP 2025* 🎉
*IMPORTANT: Deadline extended to 22 June 2025!*
🧠 *3rd International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Radiomics in
Computer-Aided Diagnosis (AIRCAD 2025)*
📅 Held with the 23rd International Conference on Image Analysis and
Processing (ICIAP 2025)
📍 Roma, Italy, September 2025
🔗 https://sites.google.com/view/aircad2025
🎯 *AIMS AND SCOPE*
In the modern era, healthcare systems predominantly operate with digital
medical data, facilitating a wide array of artificial intelligence
applications. There's a growing interest in quantitatively analysing
clinical images through techniques like Positron Emission Tomography,
Computerised Tomography, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging, particularly in
the realms of texture analysis and radiomics. Through machine and deep
learning advancements, researchers can glean insights to enhance the
discovery of therapeutic tools, bolster diagnostic decisions, and aid in
the rehabilitation process. However, the huge volume of available data may
intensify the diagnostic effort, exacerbated by high inter/intra-patient
variability, diverse imaging techniques, and the necessity to incorporate
data from multiple sensors and sources, thus giving rise to the
well-documented domain shift issue.
To tackle these challenges, radiologists and pathologists employ
Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems, which assist in analysing
biomedical images. These systems mitigate or eradicate difficulties arising
from inter- and intra-observer variability, ensuring consistent assessments
of the same region by the same physician at various times and across
different physicians, thanks to adept algorithms.
Additionally, significant issues such as delayed or restricted data access,
driven by privacy, security, and intellectual property concerns, pose
considerable hurdles. Consequently, researchers are increasingly exploring
the use of synthetic data, both for model training and for simulating
scenarios not observed in real life.
Furthermore, the emergence of foundation models, such as Vision
Transformers and large multimodal models, represents a paradigm shift in
medical image analysis. These models, pre-trained on vast datasets,
demonstrate remarkable adaptability across various tasks, including
segmentation, classification, and multi-modal integration. Their ability to
generalise effectively offers promising avenues for addressing domain shift
issues and integrating heterogeneous data sources, enhancing diagnostic and
predictive accuracy.
This workshop aims to provide a comprehensive overview of recent
advancements in biomedical image processing, leveraging machine learning,
deep learning, artificial intelligence, and radiomics features. Emphasis is
placed on practical applications, including potential solutions to address
domain shift issues, the utilisation of synthetic images to augment CAD
systems, and the integration of foundation models into clinical workflows.
Ultimately, the aim is to explore how these techniques can seamlessly
integrate into the conventional medical image processing workflow,
encompassing image acquisition, retrieval, disease detection, prediction,
and classification.

🎤 *ABSTRACT OF THE TALK (Dr. Carsten Marr)*
Diagnosing hematologic malignancies still relies heavily on the subjective
visual assessment of cytological and histological images. Experts are
increasingly challenged by large volumes of data, the rarity of diagnostic
cell types, and the heterogeneous presentation of disease. Despite the
availability of comprehensive patient data, advanced deep learning
algorithms, and a solid understanding of hematopoiesis, there is currently
no robust model capable of automatically analyzing and predicting disease
dynamics from blood smears or bone marrow aspirates. In this talk, I will
present recent advances in AI-based hematopathology that aim to address key
challenges such as model robustness, generalization to real-world data,
bias mitigation, and the integration of multimodal sources. I will
highlight three promising directions: (1) efficient single-cell detection
using neural cellular automata, (2) interpretable feature learning via
sparse autoencoders, and (3) the integration of biomedical prior knowledge
into model training through customized loss functions. These developments
illustrate how tailored AI solutions can bridge the gap between machine
learning algorithms and clinical decision-making, paving the way toward
more accurate, scalable, and explainable diagnostics in hematology 🩸.
