CLIP 2012 - MICCAI 2012 Workshop on Clinical Image-based Procedures: From Planning to Intervention

MICCAI 2012 Workshop on
Clinical Image-based Procedures: From Planning to Intervention
October 5, 2012
Acropolis Convention Center, Nice, France
Website:http://miccai-clip.org/


SCOPE
There has been considerable interest over the last years in the
development and evaluation of new translational techniques for clinical
image-based planning and interventions at the cutting edge of modern
procedures in the hospital. This workshop aims to fill the gap between
basic science and clinical applications by focusing on the clinical
translations of state-of-the-art methods with a special emphasis on
image-based planning and interventions.
TOPICS
* Challenges and emerging techniques in image-based procedures
* Clinical translation of image-based techniques for planning and
intervention
* Error analysis in image-based procedures
* Navigation and tracking: tool tracking, organ tracking, and tumor
tracking
* Computational anatomy and image analysis: modeling, segmentation,
simulation
* Personalization of patient models to support interventions
* Inter- and intra-modality registration
* Visualization for operation planning
* Multimodal image-based planning and guidance
* Clinical applications in open and minimally invasive surgery
* Clinical validation of image-guided systems
PAPER SUBMISSION
Papers will be limited to eight pages following the MICCAI submission
guidelines. Prospective authors should refer to the Paper Submission
section on the workshop website for details on how to submit papers to be
presented at the workshop.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least 2 members of the program
committee. The selection of the papers will be based on the significance
of results, novelty, technical merit, relevance and clarity of
presentation. Papers will be presented in a day long single track workshop
starting with plenary sessions.
Accepted papers will be published as a post-proceedings volume in the
Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series after the
workshop.
WORKSHOP FORMAT
Accepted papers will be presented in a day long single track workshop. The
final program will consist of invited speakers and original papers with
time allocated for discussions. Electronic proceedings will be arranged
for all of the papers presented at the workshop.
IMPORTANT DATES
* June 15, 2012: Paper submission due date
* July 6, 2012: Notification of acceptance
