Call for Papers
Biomedical Imaging is evolving to meet new demands in biology and medicine, including the possibility to localize gene expression, to characterize cell behavior in vivo, to map out the functioning brain, or to provide personalized medicine, point-of-care delivery, and minimally invasive procedures. To address these needs, biomedical imaging methodologies are being challenged to extend resolution and contrast, to increasingly include multiple modalities, operate in various clinical and research settings, and focus on a variety of temporal and spatial scales, from molecular to whole-body imaging, from nano to macro.
The eighth IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI 2011) will be held March 30 – April 2, 2011, at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place in Chicago Illinois, USA. ISBI is a joint initiative of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) and the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS). Previous meetings have played a leading role in facilitating interaction between researchers in medical and biological imaging. The 2011 meeting will continue the tradition of fostering cross-fertilization between different imaging communities and contributing to an integrative imaging approach across all scales of observation.
The meeting will feature preconference tutorials and short courses, followed by a strong scientific program of plenary talks and special sessions as well as oral and poster presentations of peer-reviewed contributed papers.
High-quality papers are solicited containing original contributions to the algorithmic, mathematical and computational aspects of biomedical imaging, from nano- to macroscale. Topics of interest include image formation and reconstruction, computational and statistical image processing and analysis, dynamic imaging, visualization, image quality assessment, and physical, biological and statistical modeling. Papers on all molecular, cellular, anatomical and functional imaging modalities and applications are encouraged. All accepted regular papers will be published in the proceedings of the symposium and will afterwards also be made available online through the IEEE Xplore database.
