Objectives

The objective of this workshop is discuss state-of-art in medical image processing and computer assisted intervention of prostate, In this half-day workshop, we will share our recent advances and identify translational technologies useful in clinical application of prostate diagnosis and threpy. We will also identify possible synergies among the participants in future strategy. The agenda will include plenary talks that will review clinical and technical aspects of prostate imaging and therapy as well as 10+ abstract presentations. One of the organizers of the workshop has been committed to MICCAI as a clinician.

Workshop/tutorial format plans

This event will take a workshop format. We will invite two plenary speakers representing medical and engineering fields in prostate image processing and intervention research. Each plenary speaker will be given 30 minutes for his or her presentations. We will widely solicit and review abstract papers for 15 minute presentations. We will encourage clinician’s participation and presentation of abstracts. The workshop will be lectures only; no panel discussion and poster presentation are planned.
