Devices Integrate MRIs into Surgeries
Boston Globe: Doctors like to see what they are doing, and so they love magnetic resonance imaging scanners. MRI machines let them look inside the human body to see damaged tissues or dangerous tumors.

This time we had nearly 300 participants and a distinct increase of the interest of the industry with 26 companies participating in the industrial exhibition. The three industrial symposia were well attended (with more than 90 participants each) and received.…
BWH Press releases. Up to 40 percent of patients undergoing breast cancer surgery require additional operations because surgeons may fail to remove all the cancerous tissue in the initial operation. However, researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) have successfully…
Image-Guided Therapy WorkshopThe 7th Image Guided Therapy Workshop was successfully held at MIT with 109 registered attendees. The meeting was held in conjunction with MICCAI 2014.
This tutorial introduced the participants to best practices in prototyping image-guidance systems for minimally invasive interventions using open-source software tools. After completing this tutorial, participants will be able to build systems for various clinical applications with minimal effort, without any…
