CALL FOR PAPERS ------------------------------- IEEE 1993 MEDICAL IMAGING CONFERENCE ------------------------------- In Conjuction With the IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium November 4-6, 1993 Sheraton Palace Hotel San Francisco, CA, USA PURPOSE The purpose of the Medical Imaging Conference (MIC) is to provide a forum for fundamental theoretical and applied contributions to physics, engineering and mathematical aspects of medical imaging. This conference will provide the opportunity for an exchange of ideas and recent achievements in medical imaging. Although the main focus of this confernce in the past has been emission tomography, authors are invited to submit papers describing original and innovative technical contributions to the general field of medical imaging in the following areas: o Emission tomography (PET and SPECT) Instrumentation and Techniques o Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Imaging and Spectroscopy o X-Ray Computed Tomography and Digital Radiography o Other Imaging Modalities (Ultrasound, Synchroton Radiation and Biomagnetic and Bioelectric Imaging) o Image Reconstruction Algorithms o Image Processing and Image Analysis INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSION OF PAPERS Abstracts and summaries of new and innovative work are solicited for oral and poeter presentation. The abstract must be camera-ready and submitted in five copies in a 11.5 x 10 cm block; while the summary (also in 5 copies) is 500-word text must be submitted with the abstract and will be the basis for selection. DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS AND SUMMARIES: April 26, 1993. All papers will be published in the Conference Record, provided manuscripts are received by November 12, 1993. Medical imaging authors may choose to submit their manuscripts to the IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, subject to the formal review process. Detailed information on the submission of papers will be provided to authors following acceptandce of their abstracts.
