Symposium “Image Processing and Analysis in Biomedical Engineering” within CompBioMed 2011 – Announce & Call

[tavares at fe.up.pt]

Dear Colleague,

Within the 2nd International Conference on Computational &
Mathematical Biomedical Engineering (CompBioMed 2011), to be held in
Washington D.C., USA, in 30th March - 1st April 2011
(www.compbiomed.net), we are organizing the Symposium “Image
Processing and Analysis in Biomedical Engineering”.
The main goal of this symposium is to bring together researchers
involved in the related fields (image acquisition, signal processing,
image processing and analysis, medical imaging, scientific
visualization, software development, grid computing, etc.), in order
to set the major lines of development for the near future. Therefore,
this symposium will consist of researchers representing various fields
related to computational vision, computer graphics, computational
mechanics, mathematics, statistics, medical imaging, biomedicine,
bioengineering, etc. Thus, it endeavours to make a contribution to
achieving better solutions for more realistic computational “living”
models from images, and attempts to establish a bridge between
clinicians, researchers and hardware manufacturers from these diverse
fields.
Due to your research activities in those fields, we would like to
invite you to submit your work and participate in the Symposium “Image
Processing and Analysis in Biomedical Engineering”.


Topics (not limited to):

- Image Processing and Analysis for Biomedical Images;
- Segmentation, Reconstruction, Tracking and Motion Analyse in
Biomedical Images;
- Biomedical Signal and Image Acquisition and Processing;
