The 6th Image Guided Therapy Workshop was successfully held on March 21-23, 2013 with 99 registered attendees. The topic for this year was Interventional applications for a changing healthcare environment. The meeting was held in conjunction with SMIT (Society for Medical Innovation and Technology). The program was divided into 9 oral sessions and a poster session. It included 46 talks and 40 poster presentations. The NCIGT/NIH portion of the workshop consisted of 7 oral sessions (Cardiac; Pelvis; Robotics; NIH (NCI, NIBIB) Programs Directions; Intra-Operative, Optical, Fluorescent Imaging and Medical Image Computing). The SMIT section consisted of a session each on Emerging Technologies for Minimally Invasive Interventions and High Intensity Focused Ultrasound. There was a combined poster session with 40 poster presentations. On March 23rd, there was a tour of the operating rooms at CNMC (Children’s National Medical Center) and the Sheikh Zayed Institute for Pediatric Surgical Innovation.
Proceedings of the Workshop are available for download (in pdf format) here.
