CMMI 2014 - International Workshop on Computational Methods for Molecular Imaging (CMMI)

Molecular imaging is an evolving clinical and research discipline enabling the visualization, characterization and quantification of biologic processes taking place at the cellular and subcellular levels within intact living subjects. Molecular imaging consists of planar to 4D imaging, which are acquired in various imaging modalities, such as SPECT, PET/CT and PET/MRI. Computational methods play an important role on the development of molecular imaging, from image synthesis to data analysis and from clinical diagnosis to therapy individualization. They continuously deepen the visualization depth, enhance the imaging resolution, extend the molecular scope and improve the precision.
This workshop is the extension and upgrade of our two tutorial sessions on molecular imaging during MICCAI 2012 and MICCAI 2013. The tutorial session in 2012 is Modeling and Analysis of Molecular Imaging (http://phd.gccis.rit.edu/feigao/MolecularImagingTu...). The tutorial session in 2013 is Introduction to Analysis and Applications of Molecular Imaging (http://phd.gccis.rit.edu/feigao/IAAMI2013). In these two sessions, by inviting distinguished researchers from all over the world, e.g. Prof. Sir Michael Brady, we started to attract attentions of many computer scientists in the field of molecular Imaging to MICCAI.
