The TRIP™
Conference and Workshop received partial financial support from the
National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, NIH |
|
| The
Society for Computer Applications in Radiology (SCAR) invites you to
attend the TRIP™ Conference and Workshop, “Transforming Medical
Imaging”. SCAR is sponsoring this scientific meeting to
spearhead research, education and discovery of innovative solutions to
the problem of healthcare information and image data overload. |
|
The overall objectives are as
follows:
-
Identify
opportunities for improving the efficiency of interpretation of
large data sets in clinical practice
-
Identify
methods to facilitate coordinated interdisciplinary imaging research
-
Prepare
for the changes that will result in image interpretation and
management
-
Choose promising areas for future research

| Join
us for this two-day workshop and explore effective ways to better
understand the issues and to facilitate exchange of ideas between researchers and
end-user clinicians, between researchers and industry partners, and
between scientists in and outside of medicine who struggle with similar
issues in their use of image data. Intended participants include
radiologists and other physicians, biomedical engineers, biomedical
imaging scientists, computer scientists, imaging informatics scientists,
imaging physicists, information technology professionals, medical
imaging industry personnel, and any other students or professionals
interested in the problem of very large medical image data sets. |
|
| The
meeting will include invited speakers on selected topics, focused
breakout groups, and discussion with top-level industry executives,
innovation leaders and clinicians. Plenary Sessions of invited speakers
will include experts from areas outside of medicine discussing their
approaches to dealing with large image data sets, followed by invited
speakers in the key topic areas listed below. These will be
followed by Break-Out Discussion Sessions and supplemented by a Poster
Session of abstracts submitted by attendees. |
|
| We
hope that you will be able to join us for this significant and exciting
meeting. |
