[Insight-developers] Show off your ITK algorithms and applications: SPIE Medical Imaging CAD Demonstration Workshop

[Stephen Aylward]

It would be great to have a strong showing of "ITK Inside"
applications at this....


CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: Demonstrations of CAD applications and
research from academia and industry are welcome!

===========

The SPIE Medical Imaging CAD Workshop will be held on Tuesday,
February 15, 2011, from 17.45 - 19.45 as part of the SPIE Medical
Imaging conference in Orlando, Florida, USA.

This year's CAD workshop will continue the series of successful
workshops at previous SPIE MI CAD conferences. The main part of the
workshop will once again be live demonstrations by teams of CAD
developers from mammography, lung CT, colon CT, and others.
Commercial, proprietary, open-source, and work-in-progress systems are
welcome. Demonstrations may feature CAD, segmentation, registration,
visualization, data mining, bioinformatics, and related algorithms and
applications.

The workshop will start with a short overview of the participating
teams and systems. Next, the audience can interact with the teams
during live demonstrations of the systems.

New this year, we are encouraging the use of public data in the
demonstrations. Researchers are also encouraged to make their own data
publicly available. The website will be updated as new datasets are
submitted. Participation in this public data component of the workshop
is purely voluntary.

This workshop provides a unique opportunity to see and experience how
advanced CAD systems perform and to discuss their design and use with
developers. We look forward to amazing demonstrations, lively
discussions, and fosting new discoveries and collaborations. Those
interested in giving a demonstration are invited to submit a short
description of the system they would like to demonstrate.
