MICCAI 2028 — International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention

MICCAI 2028 is the International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, held 16-20 October 2028 in São Paulo, Brazil — the 31st edition and the first time the MICCAI Society's flagship meeting takes place in person in Latin America. It runs under the theme 'Global MICCAI — Building MIC & CAI Everywhere', with General Chairs Natasha Leporé, Leticia Rittner and Marius George Linguraru; local organisation is led by Leticia Rittner of Unicamp in collaboration with international specialists. At least 2,200 participants from multiple countries are expected. MICCAI is the primary venue where deep learning methods for medical imaging — segmentation, registration, detection, image-guided intervention and surgical robotics — are peer-reviewed and published, and it convenes researchers, clinicians and industry partners to spotlight work across diverse regions, resources and clinical settings. The Society announced the São Paulo host city in February 2026, alongside MICCAI 2027 in Auckland, New Zealand.

Health systems, medical device makers and health-AI vendors either buy from or build on this community, and MICCAI is where its evidence base forms. For a CIO or Chief Medical Information Officer, the value is seeing which imaging-AI methods have actually cleared peer review — and which have not — before a procurement committee meets, plus direct access to the research groups whose work underpins most commercial radiology and surgical-guidance products. The 2028 theme deliberately foregrounds how methods perform across varied regions, resources and clinical settings, which is precisely the generalisation question a health system faces when a model trained on someone else's population is proposed for its own. Latin American hosting also opens a market and talent pool that rarely appears on the North American or European conference circuit.

• ✓Peer-reviewed main conference programme in medical image computing (MIC)
• ✓Computer-assisted intervention (CAI) programme covering image-guided and robotic intervention
• ✓Theme programme 'Global MICCAI — Building MIC & CAI Everywhere', spotlighting work across diverse regions, resources and clinical settings
• ✓Joint researcher, clinician and industry-partner participation, with at least 2,200 attendees expected

• ★The MICCAI Society's flagship meeting and the primary peer-reviewed venue for medical imaging AI — publication here is the evidence bar most clinical imaging products are measured against
• ★First in-person MICCAI in Latin America, under the theme 'Global MICCAI — Building MIC & CAI Everywhere', which explicitly targets how methods hold up across different regions, resources and clinical settings
• ★Convenes researchers, practising clinicians and industry partners in one programme rather than separating method research from clinical deployment
• ★Host city and dates confirmed by the Society more than two years ahead, alongside MICCAI 2027 in Auckland — an unusually long planning runway for a research conference
