From Innovation to Implementation in Imaging: i2i Workshop.

The i2i Workshop brings experts from academia, industry, and tech to NYU Langone’s campus for discussions about the latest breakthroughs in imaging hardware, software, image analysis, and image-guided therapy.

At the i2i Workshop, we take the latest research breakthroughs as a point of departure to ask big questions about the future of biomedical imaging. Our inaugural meeting in 2016 featured sessions titled “our dream scanners” and “the information tsunami.” The 2018 workshop included sessions dedicated to portable MRI scanners and emerging flexible RF coil technologies. The 2023 sessions explored a broad look at vision, sight, and imaging across modalities, length scales, and domains of inquiry.

Two Days Packed with Science

The i2i Workshop packs two days chock full of scientific sessions and evening events. Plenaries, keynotes, talks, and poster sessions are held at NYU Langone Health. Evening events have involved dinner receptions on the East River, a cruise around New York harbor, and cocktails on the Intrepid, an aircraft carrier turned museum, permanently docked on the Hudson River.

We also hosted a low-field MRI hackathon.

Is it possible to create an open-source low-field MRI system in less than a week? We hosted a hackathon to find out.

On October 16-17 and 20-21 (two days preceding and following the i2i Workshop), four teams collaborated on developing low-field MRI hardware and software to image the hackathon phantom.

The teams were led by MRI experts from the Center for Biomedical Imaging at NYU Langone Health, the Antinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital, and the Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering Institute at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
