Dear Colleague,

A critical component for true realistic biomechanical analysis and
simulations is to obtain accurately, from images, the geometric data
and the behavior of the desired structures. For that, the use of
automatic, efficient, and robust techniques of image processing and
analysis is mandatory.
The main objective of this Special Issue, of the EURASIP Journal on
Advances in Signal Processing, on Image Processing and Analysis in
Biomechanics is to bring together recent advances in the related
fields (not limited to):

- Signal processing in biomechanical applications;
- Data interpolation, registration, acquisition and compression in
biomechanics;
- Segmentation of objects in images for biomechanical applications;
- 3D reconstruction of objects from images for biomechanical
applications;
- 2D/3D tracking and object analysis in images for biomechanical
applications;
- 3D vision in biomechanics;
- Biomechanical applications involving image processing and analysis
algorithms;
- Virtual reality in biomechanics;
- Software development for image processing and analysis in
biomechanics.


Submission Instructions & Important Dates:

Authors should follow the journal manuscript format (http://
www.hindawi.com/journals/asp/) and submit their manuscript through the

Dear Colleague,

In recent years, extensive research has been performed to develop more
and more efficient and powerful medical imaging systems. Such systems
are crucial for medical specialists, allowing a deeper analysis and to
understand what is going inside the human body, and therefore they
play an essential role for adequate medical diagnosis and treatments.
To accomplish efficient and powerful medical imaging systems, many
research works have being done in many domains, like the ones related
with medical image devices, signal processing, image processing and
analysis, biomechanical simulation and data visualization.
The main goal of the Workshop “Medical Imaging Systems” is to bring
together researchers involved in the related domains, in order to set
the major lines of development for the near future. Therefore, the
proposed Workshop will consist of researchers representing various
fields related to Medical Devices, Signal Processing, Computational
Vision, Computer Graphics, Computational Mechanics, Scientific
Visualization, Mathematics and Medical Imaging. The Workshop endeavors
to contribute to obtain better solutions for more efficient and
powerful medical imaging systems, and attempts to establish a bridge
between clinicians and researchers from these diverse fields.
Due to your research activities in the field, we would like to invite
you to submit a contributed paper for the Workshop “Medical Imaging
Systems”.

Important Dates

- Submission Deadline: January 20, 2009;
- Notification of Acceptance or Rejection: March 20, 2009;
- Authors provide camera-ready manuscript: April 15-17, 2009;
- Conference Events: April 15-17, 2009.
