CALL FOR PAPERS 2007 IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging: From Nano to Macro April 12-15, 2007 Crystal Gateway Marriott, Metro Washington, D.C., U.S.A. ** Submission Deadline Extended to November 13, 2006 ** The Fourth IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI '07) will be held April 12-15, 2007 in Metro Washington DC, USA. The previous meetings have played a leading role in facilitating interaction between researchers in medical and biological imaging. The 2007 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. ISBI is a joint initiative of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) and the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS). The 2007 meeting will feature an opening morning of 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 macro-scale. 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 welcomed. All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the symposium and will afterwards also be made available online through the IEEExplore database. Important Dates: Deadline for submission of 4-page paper: 13 November 2006 (Midnight at UTC -12) EXTENDED!
