On 4th<\/sup> and 5th<\/sup> November\n2019 the fourth \u201cImage-Guided Interventions Conference (IGIC)\u201d of the two\nResearch Campi M\u00b2OLIE and STIMULATE<\/em> was hosted in Mannheim. This year\nthe conference was organized by M\u00b2OLIE. About 100 participants from science, medicine and engineering attended the\nevent with this year\u2019s main topic \u201cDigitalization in Medicine\u201d. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main\ntopic is of outstanding importance for image-guided, robot-assisted\ninterventions, which are the research focus of both Research Campi. At both sites,\nnew approaches are being developed to tackle the increasing challenge of\nstoring, evaluating and providing a wide range of data generated in diagnostics\nand therapy during a patient\u2019s stay in the hospital. Professor Jacques\nMarescaux, President and Founder of the Institut de Recherche contre\nle Cancer de l\u2019Appa\u00adreil Digestif<\/em> (IRCAD), Strasbourg, and member\nof the Scientific Advisory Board at the M\u00b2OLIE Research Campus, opened the\nconference with his plenary talk on imaging, robotics and artificial\nintelligence. Further talks by internationally renowned experts on five topics\nfollowed. Young scientists contributed oral presentations to each of the five\nsessions and presented their latest results in two poster sessions. Furthermore,\nthe panel discussion examined the topic \u201cDigital Physician \u2013 from therapy\ndecision to digital aftercare\u201d from different perspectives. For the first time\nthis year, start-up companies from the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region were\nalso actively involved and presented their innovations at the conference. Over\nthe years, the joint conference \u201cImage Guided Interven\u00adtions\u201d by M\u00b2OLIE and STIMULATE<\/em> has developed into an\nestablished and important communication format for both Research Campi. With\nits international orientation, the conference promotes the professional exchange\nnot only among each other, but also beyond the borders of the Research Campi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
