Abstract:
In this talk, I will present methods for future cancer risk from medical images. The discussion will explore alternative ways to formulate the risk assessment task and focus on algorithmic issues in developing such models. I will also discuss our experience in translating these algorithms into clinical practice in hospitals around the world.

Keynote:

Self-Supervision for Learning from the Bottom Up

Why do self-supervised learning? A common answer is: “because data labeling is expensive.” In this talk, I will argue that there are other, perhaps more fundamental reasons for working on self-supervision. First, it should allow us to get away from the tyranny of top-down semantic categorization and force meaningful associations to emerge naturally from the raw sensor data in a bottom-up fashion. Second, it should allow us to ditch fixed datasets and enable continuous, online learning, which is a much more natural setting for real-world agents. Third, and most intriguingly, there is hope that it might be possible to force a self-supervised task curriculum to emerge from first principles, even in the absence of a pre-defined downstream task or goal, similar to evolution. In this talk, I will touch upon these themes to argue that, far from running its course, research in self-supervised learning is only just beginning.

Alone in the Ring - presented by SMAC and Stanford Medicine and the Muse

Alone in the Ring (a research-based theatre production about inclusive healthcare workplaces) is coming to campus during the Annual Stanford School of Medicine Diversity Week and National Disability Employment Awareness Month, SMAC and Stanford Medicine and the Muse hope to continue the discussion on how to spark and sustain change towards inclusive workspaces. Alone in the Ring is followed by a discussion between the team and audience members. During the presentation, audience members are encouraged to reflect: How inclusive is your workspace? How could you make it more accessible?

Deep Learning for Histology Images Analysis

Abstract:
With the recent expansions of whole-slide digital scanning, archiving, and high-throughput tissue banks, the field of digital pathology is primed to benefit significantly from deep learning technology. This talk will cover several applications of deep learning for characterizing histopathological patterns on high-resolution microscopy images for cancerous and precancerous lesions. Furthermore, the current challenges for building deep learning models for pathology image analysis will be discussed and new methodological advances to address these bottlenecks will be presented.

Title: Multimodal Data Fusion for Selective Identification of Aggressive and Indolent Prostate Cancer on Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Abstract: Automated methods for detecting prostate cancer and distinguishing indolent from aggressive disease on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) could assist in early diagnosis and treatment planning. Existing automated methods of prostate cancer detection mostly rely on ground truth labels with limited accuracy, ignore disease pathology characteristics observed on resected tissue, and cannot selectively identify aggressive (Gleason Pattern≥4) and indolent (Gleason Pattern=3) cancers when they co-exist in mixed lesions. This talk will cover multimodal and multi-scale fusion approaches to integrate radiology images, pathology images, and clinical domain knowledge about prostate cancer distribution to selectively identify and localize aggressive and indolent cancers on prostate MRI.

Title: Pretraining Neural Networks for Medical AI

Abstract: Transfer learning has quickly become standard practice for deep learning on medical images. Typically, practitioners repurpose existing neural networks and their corresponding weights to bootstrap model development. This talk will cover several methods to pretrain neural networks for medical tasks. The current challenges for pretraining neural networks in Radiology will be discussed and recent advancements that address these bottlenecks will be highlighted.

Abstract:
We have a call to action in healthcare – we need to drive value.  Artificial intelligence (AI), if deployed correctly, can help accomplish this lofty mission.  In this discussion we will review the following lessons learned in deploying radiology AI at scale:  4 unexpected benefits of implementing AI emergent finding triage; the importance of investing in AI radiologist education; how “most” AI needs to be incorporated into the radiologist workflow; why a platform is required to deploy AI at scale and what a modern platform looks like; how to use AI to add value to your data; and, as Dr. Curt Langlotz famously said, why rads (practices) who use AI will replace those who don’t (a depiction of what the role of the radiologist might look like in a tech enabled future).

Bio:
Dr. Kottler has been a practicing radiologist specializing in emergency imaging for over 16 years.  Combining her clinical experience with a graduate degree in applied mathematics, she has been using technological innovation to drive value in radiology.  As the first radiologist to join Radiology Partners, Dr. Kottler has held multiple leadership positions within her practice and is currently the associate Chief Medical Officer for Clinical AI.  Externally Dr. Kottler serves on multiple committees for the ACR, RSNA, and SIIM.  Dr. Kottler is also passionate about promoting diversity and creating a culture of belonging.  As such she is a member of the AAWR, is a member of the diversity and inclusion committee at SIIM, serves on the steering committee for RAD=, and leads the education and development division of the Belonging Committee within Radiology Partners.
