Computational Biomechanics for Medicine VII:MICCAI 2012 Satellite Workshop
CALL FOR PAPERS
MICCAI Computational Biomechanics for Medicine VII Workshop
<http://school.mech.uwa.edu.au/CBM2012/> ,
<http://cbm.mech.uwa.edu.au/>
will be held in Nice (France) on October 01, 2012, in
conjunction with the Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Interventions MICCAI 2012 <http://www.miccai.org/news/miccai-2012-workshops-and-challenges-call-papers>.
Rationale:
Mathematical modelling and computer simulation have proved tremendously
successful in engineering. One of the greatest challenges for mechanists is to
extend the success of computational mechanics to fields outside traditional
engineering, in particular to biology, biomedical sciences, and medicine. The
proposed workshop will provide an opportunity for computational biomechanics
specialists to present and exchange opinions on the opportunities of applying
their techniques to computer-integrated medicine. For example, continuum
mechanics models provide a rational basis for analysing biomedical images by
constraining the solution to biologically reasonable motions and processes.
Biomechanical modelling can also provide clinically important information about
the physical status of the underlying biology, integrating information across
molecular, tissue, organ, and organism scales. The main goal of this workshop
is to showcase the clinical and scientific utility of computational
biomechanics in computer-integrated medicine.
Scope:
The following computational mechanics disciplines will be included:
1. Computational solid mechanics
2. Computational multibody systems kinematics and dynamics
3. Computational fluid mechanics
4. Computational thermodynamics (e.g. heat transfer, radiation)
We solicit papers that use methods of computational biomechanics in the
following application areas:
. Medical image analysis
. Image-guided surgery
. Surgical simulation
. Surgical intervention planning
. Surgical technique development
. Disease prognosis and diagnosis
. Injury mechanism analysis
. Surgical aid design
. Artificial organs
. Implant and prostheses design
. Medical robotics
. Tissue engineering
. Understanding of embryonic development
. Understanding of aging
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key dates
. Deadline for paper submission: 11 June 2012
. Notification of acceptance: 12 July 2012
. Final version of papers submitted: 01 August 2012
. Workshop: 01 October
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submission:
- Submissions should include CBM7 in the subject line and the author's first name and family name in the filename.

- Full workshop papers will be carefully refereed.
- Participants will receive electronic versions of the papers on the day of the workshop.
- Paper proceedings will be published by Springer NY.
- The authors of the best papers presented at the Computational Biomechanics for Medicine VII Workshop
will be requested to submit an extended version of their papers to the special section of
a premier biomedical engineering journal (the journal to be decided at a later date).

2) Reference style: Use the style for Medicine, Biomedicine, Life Sciences, Chemistry, Geosciences, Computer Science, Engineering, Economics as specified in the Instructions to Authors. Cite in the text using the reference number in square brackets.
3) The figures and tables should be embedded within the text.
4) Use American English
4) Do not anonymise your manuscript.
5) The length of papers including figures and references should be between eight (8) and twelve (12) pages.
We look forward to seeing you in Nice in October.
