Dear Colleague,

The use of computational procedures based on medical images to model and
visualize represented objects requires a high level of research =
investment,
due mainly to the strong demands of clinical partners. These procedures =
can
have different goals, such as shape reconstruction and visualization,
segmentation, motion and deformation analyses, registration, simulation,
etc. The main goal of this Mini-symposium is to promote the debate =
between
researchers involved in the related fields (Bio-medical Image =
Acquisition,
Analysis and Processing; Multi-scale Shape and Motion Reconstruction;
Multi-scale Modeling and Analysis; Scientific Visualization, Bio-medical
Software Libraries, Environments; etc.), in order to set the major lines =
of
developments for the near future.

Mini-symposium Organizers:

Jo=E3o Manuel R.S. Tavares (ta...@fe..., FEUP, Porto Portugal)
Renato Natal Jorge (rn...@fe..., FEUP, Porto, Portugal)
Thomas J.R. Hughes (tjr...@ho..., ICES, University of Texas at
Austin, USA)
Chandrajit Bajaj (ba...@cs..., ICES, University of Texas at =
