Open Workshop on Microscopy Image Analysis in ITK and VTK

The goal of this workshop is to foster the growth of a community of scientists interested in microscopy image analysis for biology using ITK and VTK

Background

Optical microscopy is by far the most common form of imaging in biomedical research due to its high spatial resolution (subcellular), high specificity (molecular in the case of fluorescence), and suitability for use in living specimens. A Google Scholar search for "fluorescence microscopy", only one of several types of optical microscopy, returns 1.7 million articles compared with < 1 million for "MRI". Traditionally, most users of microscopy have performed qualitative analysis on a small number of images, but this is quickly changing. There is increasingly a need to perform quantitative analysis on microscopy images and to perform this analysis on image sets of >100,000 images.
