Workshop Description:

Open source software has had an expanding role in the development of image analysis routines for radiology research applications. Compared to commercial proprietary software, open source software is often more adaptable and economical. The purpose of this workshop is to familiarize participants with the features of ImageJ/FIJI , an open source image processing software. Case studies using clinical images will be used to build simple AI model for detecting signs of fibroisis /honey combing from axial CT chest images. These demonstrations will also show how the capabilities of this software can be expanded using macros scripts and plug-ins (FIJI only). A quick demonstration of WEKA (https://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/ ) a machine learning package embedded in FIJI.

Who Should Attend :

Radiologist, Radiographer,  Image cancer researcher , Medical Physicist, quality officer, scientist researcher

Learning Objectives:

Upon completion of this workshop, attendees should be able to:

1. Open DICOM images and check DICOM tags
2. Apply filters (noise removal, enhance edges)
3. Enhance Image contrast.
4. Extract some imaging features & measurement.
5. Annotate , build and Apply artificial intelligence model for predicting fibrosis changes in lung CT images.

Who should attend :

This agenda is designed to be engaging and informative, appealing to a wide range of healthcare professionals involved in ultrasound, from beginners to seasoned practitioners.

• Radiologists: looking to deepen their expertise in ultrasound imaging and stay updated with the latest advancements.
• Radiographers aspiring to transition into sonography, particularly those preparing for ARDMS exams and aiming to meet UAE professional qualification requirements as certified sonographers.
• Sonographers seeking to refine their skills, enhance their diagnostic accuracy, and stay current with emerging ultrasound techniques.
• General Practitioners (GPs) interested in integrating ultrasound into their practice for improved patient assessment and management.
• Obstetrics and Gynecology Practitioners: (OB/GYNs) focusing on advanced imaging techniques for women's health, including pregnancy, fetal development, and gynecological conditions.
• Gastrointestinal (GI) Specialists who aim to utilize ultrasound for better evaluation of abdominal organs and GI-related issues.
• Urologists looking to enhance their diagnostic capabilities with ultrasound in the assessment of urological conditions.
• Vascular surgeons
• ⁠Breast Surgeons focused on precise breast imaging techniques, crucial for early detection and accurate diagnosis of breast pathologies.

Workshop Highlights:

The workshop will offer an in-depth exploration of both the theoretical foundations and practical applications of ultrasound, covering general and breast imaging. Attendees will benefit from expert-led lectures that address key ultrasound principles, Doppler techniques, and advanced imaging modalities like elastography.

Hands-On Session:

Following the theoretical sessions, participants will engage in a 2-hour hands-on workshop. This practical segment is designed to translate theoretical knowledge into real-world clinical skills. Participants will practice ultrasound techniques under the guidance of experienced professionals, ensuring they leave the workshop with enhanced confidence and competence in using ultrasound for diagnostic purposes.
