CALL FOR PAPERS

__________________

This workshop targets researchers for whom the effects of motion are
critical in image analysis or visualisation. By inviting contributions
across all application areas we aim to bring together ideas from
different fields without being confined to a particular
methodology. In particular, the move from model-based to
learning-based methods of modelling over recent years has resulted in
increased transferability of techniques between domains. RAMBO
provides a forum for the dissemination and discussion of novel
developments related to dealing with, and taking advantage of, motion
in medical imaging.

We invite 8-10 page LNCS submissions on any aspect of medical imaging
where motion plays a role in the image formation or analysis. Topics
include, but are not limited to:

- Cardiac, respiratory, fetal, colon, fMRI, interventional applications

- Motion modelling (including methods to learn motion)

- Time series analysis

- Image registration

- Image segmentation / classification

- Real-time applications

- Machine learning methods

- Image reconstruction

- Image enhancement (e.g. super-resolution, denoising)

- Compressed sensing / accelerated imaging

This year, RAMBO will additionally host CoronARe: A Coronary Artery
Reconstruction Challenge.

CORONARE CHALLENGE

___________________

This year, RAMBO will additionally host CoronARe: A Coronary Artery
Reconstruction Challenge:
https://challenge.kitware.com/#challenge/58c9469ecad3a532cfa20dd3

CoronARe ranks state-of-the-art methods in symbolic and tomographic
coronary artery reconstruction from interventional C-arm rotational
angiography. Specifically, we will benchmark the performance of the
methods using accurately pre-processed data, and study the effects of
imperfect pre-processing conditions and geometric calibration. The
evaluation will be performed in a controlled environment using digital
phantom images.
