Main description:

This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of the International Workshop on Computational Methods for Molecular Imaging, CMMI 2017, the International Workshop on Reconstruction and Analysis of Moving Body Organs, RAMBO 2017, and the International Stroke Workshop: Imaging and Treatment Challenges, SWITCH 2017, held in conjunction with the 20th International Conference on Medical Imaging and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2017, in Quebec City, QC, Canada, in September 2017.

The 5 full papers presented at FIFI 2017, the 9 full papers presented at RAMBO 2017, and the 4 full papers presented at SWITCH 2017 were carefully reviewed and selected. The CMMI papers cover various areas from image synthesis to data analysis and from clinical diagnosis to therapy individualization, using molecular imaging modalities PET, SPECT, PET/CT, SPECT/CT, and PET/MR. The RAMBO papers present research from both academia and industry, They are organized into the categories "registration and tracking" and "image reconstruction and information retrieval" while application areas include cardiac, pulmonal, abdominal, fetal, and renal imaging. The SWITCH papers focus on CT(A)-based quantitative imaging biomarkers for stroke.
