Dear Dimitris,

The instruction on MedIA web site requires the manuscript to be double
spaced (which is traditionally the case with hardcopy submission).
=20
Do we have to do double spacing for our electronic submission?

Thanks,
Lydia

> A special issue of the Medical Image Analysis (MedIA) journal will
> be devoted to the topic of segmentation and registration algorithm
> development and analysis using the Insight Toolkit (ITK).   This

> community, and it is beginning to affect new work in image analysis as
> well as medical application design.  Its position as an open-source

working

> using emerging advanced algorithms.

> Since ITK began as a collection of existing algorithms and methods
> from the medical image processing community, this special issue
> will focus on projects and novel work that add value or derive value
> from the toolkit:  applications and  techniques that use ITK,
evaluation,
> verification, and validation of algorithms and methods through the
> available open source software, and new methods, as they emerge, that
> are distributed through the toolkit.  We are seeking papers covering
all
> aspects  of  the  analysis process,  emphasizing techniques in
> segmentation and registration of 3D and higher dimensional medical
> data.  This call includes papers  on  visualization,  analysis,
> perception,  and  interaction  issues.
>=20
> The special issue will be accompanied by a CD-ROM, so images, source

> Example topics include but are not limited to:
>=20
>    o  Emerging (New) object segmentation tools
>    o  Multimodal registration methods
>    o  Level set applications and algorithms
>    o  Ground truth generation and  evaluation for algorithm validation
>    o  Fuzzy and statistical methods for deformable segmentation
>    o  Rigid and deformable registration
>    o  Tools for Medical Visualization using ITK
>            automated tools, interactive tools, mathematical tools
>    o  Evaluation metrics for segmentation and registration methods
>    o  Application Examples and Case Studies
>            medical applications ITK
>            validation trials using ITK
