In 2021, the challenge was renewed with a larger dataset (325 patients from 6 centers) with the addition of a second task, the prediction of progression-free survival (PFS). This <a href=\"https:\/\/link.springer.com\/chapter\/10.1007\/978-3-030-98253-9_1\">second edition<\/a> was quite successful, with twice the number of submissions (~40) for the first task and 30 for the second task [2].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, challengers are again invited to compete in the same tasks, although the segmentation one now includes the fully automated detection and segmentation of lymph nodes in addition to the primary tumor,  and the dataset should contain more than a thousand patients collected from 9 participating centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For 2022, the challenge is now hosted on the platform grand-challenge.org: <a href=\"https:\/\/hecktor.grand-challenge.org\/\">https:\/\/hecktor.grand-challenge.org\/<\/a>.
