&lt;br&gt;
Dear Colleague,&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Within the ISVC08 - International Symposium on Visual Computing&lt;br&gt;
(&lt;a href="http://www.isvc.net),"&gt;http://www.isvc.net),&lt;/a&gt; to be held in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, in&lt;br&gt;
December 1-3, 2008, we are organizing the Special Track =93Computational&lt;br&gt;
Bioimaging and Visualization=94.&lt;br&gt;
The main goal of the Special Track =93Computational Bioimaging and&lt;br&gt;
Visualization=94 is to bring together researchers involved in the&lt;br&gt;
related fields (Image Acquisition, Image Segmentation, Objects&lt;br&gt;
Tracking, Objects Matching, Shape Reconstruction, Motion and&lt;br&gt;
Deformation Analysis, Medical Imaging, Scientific Visualization,&lt;br&gt;
Software Development, Grid Computing, etc.), in order to set the major&lt;br&gt;
lines of development for the near future.&lt;br&gt;
Therefore, this Special Track will bring researchers representing&lt;br&gt;
various fields related to Computational Vision, Computer Graphics,&lt;br&gt;
Computational Mechanics, Scientific Visualization, Mathematics,&lt;br&gt;
Statistics, Medical Imaging, etc. Thus, it will endeavor to contribute&lt;br&gt;
to obtain better solutions for more realistic computational =93living=94&lt;br&gt;
models from images, and attempts to establish a bridge between the&lt;br&gt;
researchers from these diverse fields.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Due to your research activities in those fields, we would like to&lt;br&gt;
invite you to submit your work and participate in the Special Track&lt;br&gt;
=93Computational Bioimaging and Visualization=94.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Topics&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In this Special Track the following topics will be considered (not&lt;br&gt;
limited to):&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
- Image Processing and Analysis for Computational Bioimaging and&lt;br&gt;
Visualization;&lt;br&gt;
- Segmentation, Reconstruction, Tracking and Motion Analyse in Medical&lt;br&gt;
Images;&lt;br&gt;
- Biomedical Signal and Image Acquisition and Processing;&lt;br&gt;
- Objects Simulation and Virtual Reality;&lt;br&gt;
- Computer Aided Diagnosis, Surgery, Therapy, Treatment and&lt;br&gt;
Telemedicine Systems;&lt;br&gt;
- Software Development for Computational Bioimaging and Visualization;&lt;br&gt;
- Grid and High Performance Computing for Computational Bioimaging and&lt;br&gt;
Visualization.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Submission/Proceedings&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Instructions for authors are available in the website of ISVC'08&lt;br&gt;
(&lt;a href="http://www.isvc.net/author.html)."&gt;http://www.isvc.net/author.html).&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Authors should submit electronically their contributions through the&lt;br&gt;
website of ISVC'08 (&lt;a href="http://www.isvc.net),"&gt;http://www.isvc.net),&lt;/a&gt; selecting the Special Track&lt;br&gt;
=93Computational Bioimaging and Visualization=94.&lt;br&gt;
Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings which will be&lt;br&gt;
published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science&lt;br&gt;
(LNCS) series.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
