Announcement
This is the eighth annual
technical meeting which follows the successful series begun in Oxford
in
1997. The meetings are designed to provide a UK forum for the
dissemination and discussion of research in medical image understanding
and analysis, an expanding area in which significant advances are
currently being made. It is an area notable for the range of research
communities involved, and the meeting aims to encourage the growth and
raise the profile of this multi-disciplinary field by bringing together
the various communities.
Objectives
- to present the
state-of-the-art of UK research in medical image understanding and
analysis (submissions from outside the UK are also welcome)
- to raise awareness of
technical advances among potential users
- to encourage dialogue
and discussion between workers from across the field
- from young researcher
to established clinician or scientist
- from blue-sky research
to practical application
- from university,
hospital and commercial R&D
- to involve those from
the range of technical and clinical disciplines involved in medical
imaging, including
- cardiac imaging
- oncology
- dermatology
- novel imaging
methods
- computer-aided
pathology
- computer-aided
radiology
- computer assisted
surgery
- image guided
intervention
|
- tissue
perfusion
- ophthalmology
- neurology
- radiology
- surgery
- magnetic
resonance imaging
- positron emission
imaging
- ultrasound
|
- to highlight past and
current successes in the transfer of image analysis systems to clinical
practice and identify clinical needs of the future
- to encourage discussion
of industrial opportunities and the challenges they raise

Format
of Meeting
The two day meeting will
consist of a single track of oral presentations, with each session
moderated by an invited clinical chairperson to encourage consideration
and discussion of clinical relevance. Generous time will be allowed for
poster sessions. All submissions conforming with the instructions for
authors overleaf will be reviewed by the Programme Committee. Those
accepted for oral or poster presentation will be included, following
revision by the author, in a volume of proceedings available at the
meeting and on-line at the meeting website.
The
meeting will be held in the Department of Computing, Imperial College
on the South Kensington Campus. Accommodation will be provided on
campus, within walking distance of the venue.
The registration fee will be £180 for members of co-sponsoring
organisations, £200 for non-members
and £120 for student presenters to include registration, the
proceedings, lunch and refreshments on both days and the conference
dinner. B&B will be available on 22st and 23nd September at a cost
of £45 or £61 per night.
