DATRA 2018 Keynote Talk


Dr. Georg Langs studied Mathematics at Vienna University of Technology, and finished his PhD in Computer Vision at Vienna University of Technology and Graz University of Technology in 2007. He worked as a post-doctoral associate at the Applied Mathematics and Systems Laboratory at Ecole Centrale de Paris, and the GALEN Group at INRIA-Saclay, Ile de France with Nikos Paragios from 2007 to 2008. He was a research scientist at Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 2009 to 2011, and joined the faculty of Medical University of Vienna in 2011. He taught computer vision and medical imaging courses at Ecole Centrale de Paris, and teaches at Vienna University of Technology. He is reviewer of several conferences and journals, among them IEEE Transactions on Pattern Recognition and Machine Intelligence, and IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging. Georg Langs is the head of the Computational Imaging Research Lab (CIR) at the Medical University of Vienna. His research interests mainly lie in the field of neuroimaging, machine learning and medical image analysis, in particular, functional brain imaging, perception and reorganization, autonomous model learning and large scale image retrieval.

The TB Portals Program: Data sharing and advanced analysis of tuberculosis patient data and images to improve diagnostics and treatment

The TB Portals Program is a multi-national, inter-disciplinary collaboration to advance tuberculosis (TB) research through data sharing and analysis. The Program has collected clinical, imaging, and genomic data from over 2000 TB patient cases, including 1900 chest X-rays and 1300 CT scans, which are publicly made available to through the TB Portals. In collaboration with leading medical imaging experts, the Program is developing visualization and analysis tools for both researchers and clinicians, such as computerized detection and annotation of TB lesions on CT scans, image-based TB severity scoring, and TB classification. Through these efforts, the Program hopes to generate knowledge that can be used to improve TB diagnostics and treatment.
