Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention - MICCAI 2006: 9th International Conference, Copenhagen, Denmark, October 1-6, 2006, Proceedings, Part I / Edition 1

by Rasmus Larsen, Mads Nielsen, Jon Sporring

Overview

The 9th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2006, was held in Copenhagen, Denmark at the Tivoli Concert Hall with satellite workshops and tutorials at the IT University of Copenhagen, October 1-6, 2006. The conference has become the premier international conference with - depth full length papers in the multidisciplinary fields of medical image c- puting, computer-assisted intervention, and medical robotics. The conference brings together clinicians, computer scientists, engineers, physicists, and other researchers and offers a forum for the exchange of ideas in a multidisciplinary setting. MICCAI papers are of high standard and have a long lifetime. In this v- ume as well as in the latest journal issues of Medical Image Analysis and IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging papers cite previous MICCAIs including the first MICCAI conference in Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1998. It is obvious that the community requires the MICCAI papers as archive material. Therefore the proceedings of MICCAI are from 2005 and henceforth being indexed by Medline. A careful review and selection process was executed in order to secure the best possible program for the MICCAI 2006 conference. We received 578 scientific papers from which 39 papers were selected for the oral program and 193 papers for the poster program.
