2022/08/18: The Test Phase and the Validation Phase 1 (Live Leadboard) of ATM\’22 Openning! The participants, who successfully took part in the previous stage, please submit your result on this new Validation Phase 1 (Live Leaderboard)! Besides, we will also download the previous validation phase best result for our local test. And the final rankings depend on the Test phase and the averaged metrics of TD, BD, DSC, and Precision.
2022/08/17: The validation submission phase 1 has completed! Thanks for your participation.
2022/08/02: We have created the Test Docker Submission Guideline and all participants that successfully participated in validaition submission phase 1 can prepare your test docker and paper, we will take care of your submission! All participants should E-mail to IMR-ATM22@outlook.com with a downloadable link to the zipped docker image, along with a qualified short paper that describes your methods and experiment settings. If we don\’t receive the e-mails before 31/08/2022, 23:59, Time zone in Beijing, China (GMT+8), your participation is unfortunately unsuccessful!
2022/07/19: We have allowed ten submissions in the validation submission phase 1! Please take part in this stage!
2022/07/11: The evaluation for validation is open! Please refer to validation submission phase 1! Please pay attention to two things: 1) The saved prediction results should have the same origin and spacing as those of corresponding input NIFTI CT images. 2) Only the largest component of the binary results are considered, please guarantee your results are processed with the largest component extraction.
2022/06/01: Early submission for validation is open! Please refer to validation submission phase 1!
2022/05/30: The training data have been released! Please refer to the dataset page! All participants must send the signed document to IMR-ATM22@outlook.com to get the data access and obey the challenge rule!

Airway segmentation is a crucial step for the analysis of pulmonary diseases including asthma, bronchiectasis, and emphysema. The accurate segmentation based on X-Ray computed tomography (CT) enables the quantitative measurements of airway dimensions and wall thickness, which can reveal the abnormality of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Besides, the extraction of patient-specific airway models from CT images is required for navigation in bronchoscopic-assisted surgery. Due to the fine-grained pulmonary airway structure, manual annotation is however time-consuming, error-prone, and highly relies on the expertise of clinicians.
