This session aims to bring people together and discuss options for collaboration. In the past this has been very successful, with several papers and this collaborations between groups (see www.ecg-imaging.org). This list below will be finalized, but the participation of all attendees is highly appreciated. Subjects to be discussed in groups: 

  • ECGI in Robotics
  • ECGI in non-invasive ablation
  • ECG to optimize devices
  • Forward / inverse Methodology
  • Role of AI in ECGI
  • Model building
