Sunday June 25 - Self-organized dinner
Monday June 26 - Workshops 1 & 2
- Workshop 1 (Monday, AM)
- Outline the general workshop goals
- Address a set of challenge problems in clinical cardiology for which
- ECG-based diagnosis and monitoring would be useful
- State and discuss the clinical basis for each challenge:
- Identification and quantification of demand and supply
ischemia and infarction
- Decision support for EP ablation procedures
- Estimation of an individual's normal ECG for reference when
clinically required for serial comparison
- Focus initial challenges, discuss any additional ones as required
- Discuss the facets of the challenges, and how they each play a role:
- Clinical motivation, nature of the problem and limitations
of current methodologies
- Relevant physiology and Biophysics: what are the electrical
sources linked to the condition, why are they challenging to
detect?
- Signal Acquisition, analysis and processing: how do we get the
data, what are the necessary processing and analysis steps?
- Role of simulation and modeling: how can modeling contribute to
understanding the problem and developing diagnostics and
therapy?
- Plan for Workshops 2, 3, and 4:
- Take each challenge through a set of facets in
order to understand it and develop steps to addressing it.
- Introduce each challenge with one or two short (15 minutes)
presentations from a workshop participant to outline the topic
and then provide an overview of the current technical state of
the art.
- Use first half hour to formulate the challenge and last half hour to
summarize, in between open discussion.
- Workshop 2 (Monday, PM):
- Theme: Identifying and quantifying demand and supply ischemia and
infarction
- Outline: Galen, Anton
- Current state of electrocardiographic imaging: Ron and Rob
- Workshop Dinner
Tuesday June 26 - workshops 3 and 4
- Workshop 3 (Tuesday, AM)
- Theme: Decision support for EP ablation procedures
- Outline: John Sapp
- Current state of electrocardiographic imaging: John
(Note: by imaging, we mean here the spatial measurement of
cardiac bioelectricity.)
- Workshop 4 (Tuesday, PM)
- Theme: Estimation of an individual's normal ECG for reference when
clinically required for serial comparison
- Outline: Anton Gorgels
- Current state of individualized ECG's: Pentti, Adriaan
