 About the workshop

The application of mathematical concepts to the area of medical imaging has made significant advances in the usage of these imaging modalities to computer-assisted surgery, diagnosis, treatment, and training in medicine. This workshop aims at providing an opportunity for researchers from different disciplines including mathematics, computer science, electrical engineering, physics and clinical medicine to meet and discuss the advances and latest developments in this exciting area.

The workshop comprises a series of tutorial lectures on CT/MRI imaging and talks on specific research topics. These topics include the clinical applications of high end CT/MRI, and the applications of signal processing, image processing and mathematical modeling on CT, MRI and ECG.
