Activity Overview
DFUC 2024
Challenge UserDiabetes is a global epidemic affecting around 425 million people and expected to rise to 629 million by 2045. Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU) is a severe condition that can result from the disease. The rise of the condition over the last decades is a challenge for healthcare systems. Cases of DFU usually lead to severe conditions that greatly prolongs treatment and result in limb amputation or death. Recent research focuses on creating detection algorithms to monitor their condition to improve patient care and reduce strain on healthcare systems. Work between Manchester Metropolitan University, Lancashire Teaching Hospitals and Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust has created an international repository of up to 11,000 DFU images. Analysis of ulcer regions is a key for DFU management. Delineation of ulcers is time-consuming. With effort from the lead scientists of the UK, US, India and New Zealand, this challenge promotes novel work in DFU segmentation and promote interdisciplinary researcher collaboration.
REport Generation in pathology using Pan-Asia Giga-pixel WSIs
Challenge UserThis project focuses on advancing automated pathology report generation using vision-language foundation models. It addresses the limitations of traditional NLP metrics (e.g., BLEU, METEOR, ROUGE) by emphasizing clinically relevant evaluation. The initiative includes standardized datasets, expert comparisons, and medical-domain-specific metrics to assess model performance. It also explores the integration of generated reports into diagnostic workflows with clinical feedback. To support fairness and generalizability, the challenge dataset comprises ~20,500 cases from six medical centers in Korea, Japan, India, Turkey, and Germany, promoting multicultural and multiethnic medical AI development.
