Event Description

CARS 2010, June 23-26, Geneva, Switzerland

The CARS congress with its associated journal is a facilitator of innovation and an important contributor to modern medicine on a worldwide basis. Founded in 1985, CARS with its focus on research and development for computer assisted systems and their applications in radiology and surgery has played a leading role in medical informatics for 25 years. Its growth and impact is due to CARS’s close collaboration with the ISCAS, EuroPACS, CAR, CAD and CMI societies. Following the long term successful cooperation, they will jointly hold their annual meetings with CARS in Geneva in 2010.

The CARS Congress Organizing Committee invites you to be part of this extraordinary scientific/medical community which gives medicine a new perspective. Join us in Geneva in June 2010, if you work in the fields of radiology, surgery, engineering, informatics and/or healthcare management and have an interest in topics, such as

* image guided interventions
* medical imaging
* image processing and visualization
* computer aided diagnosis
* surgical simulation
* surgical navigation and robotics
* model-guided therapy, and
* personalised medicine

New PACS applications, including IT-infrastructures adapted for surgery as well as related results from the DICOM and IHE working groups are also within the scope of CARS. Clinical specialties represented at CARS include:

* Image Guided Tumor Ablation Therapies
* Cardiovascular Imaging
* Computed Maxillofacial Imaging
* Computer Assisted Radiation Therapy
* Computer Assisted Orthopaedic and Spinal Surgery
* Computer Assisted Head and Neck, and ENT Surgery
* Image Guided Neurosurgery
* Minimally Invasive Cardiovascular and Thoracoabdominal Surgery

Please note that the deadline for paper and abstract submissions for CARS 2010 in Geneva is January 11, 2010.

Recent successful CARS congresses have taken place in Berlin, Paris, Tokyo, San Francisco, London, Chicago, Osaka and Barcelona. We would be delighted to welcome you in Geneva for CARS 2010.
