The Medical Imaging meeting is the internationally recognized premier forum for reporting state-of-the-art research and development in medical imaging. We invite contributions in all aspects of the full range of medical imaging modalities, from the underlying fundamental scientific principles to clinical evaluations. The symposium covers a wide range of topics on medical image acquisition, display, processing, understanding, perception, storage, and transmission, including:
- imaging physics, systems analysis and modeling
- emerging image acquisition technologies (e.g., electrical impedance imaging, microwave imaging, optical tomographic imaging)
- molecular imaging
- ultrasonic acquisition and processing technologies
- magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
- X-ray computed tomography
- PET, SPECT and hybrid acquisition systems
- image processing and analysis
- computer-aided detection and diagnosis
- computer-based image analysis and interpretation
- display technologies
- image-guided therapies
- visual rendering of complex datasets
- visual perception and observer performance
- physiological and functional interpretation of image data
- clinical evaluations of new technologies
- image data management (storage, retrieval, transmission)
- picture archiving and communication systems (PACS).
We encourage contributions from you and your colleagues. SPIE's copyright policy grants authors the right to submit their Medical Imaging Proceedings papers to peer reviewed journals or magazines of their choice.
