RSNA Announces 2025 AI Challenge for Intracranial Aneurysm Detection
July 29, 2025
RSNA launches a global AI challenge to develop models for detecting and localizing intracranial aneurysms in CT and MRI scans.
Key Details
- RSNA launches 2025 Intracranial Aneurysm Detection AI Challenge in collaboration with major neuroradiology societies.
- AI models will target identifying aneurysms in 13 anatomical locations using CT angiography, MR angiography, and MRI sequences.
- The dataset includes imaging from 18 sites across five continents, annotated by over 60 expert radiologists.
- A subset includes 3D segmentations for specific vascular locations in MRI.
- Challenge is open globally via Kaggle, with $50,000 in prizes for top nine competitors.
- Winners will be announced at RSNA’s annual meeting; top-performing models released under open licenses.
Why It Matters
This challenge is significant as it will drive innovation in AI solutions for neurovascular disease detection, leveraging diverse, expertly annotated datasets. The open licensing of top models will help propel further research, validation, and potential clinical adoption in radiology.
