The 23rd IEEE International Symposium on Computer-Based Medical Systems (CBMS 2010) is intended to provide an international forum for discussing the latest results in the field of computational medicine. The scientific program of CBMS 2010 will consist of invited keynote talks given by leading scientists in the field, and regular and special track sessions that cover a broad array of issues which relate computing to medicine.

RELEVANT TOPICS

Network and Telemedicine Systems
Medical Databases & Information Systems
Computer-Aided Diagnosis
Medical Devices with Embedded Computers
Bioinformatics in Medicine
Software Systems in Medicine
Pervasive Health Systems and Services
Web-based Delivery of Medical Information
Medical Image Segmentation & Compression
Content Analysis of Biomedical Image Data
Knowledge-Based & Decision Support Systems

ST1: Computational Proteomics and Genomics
ST2: Knowledge Discovery and Decision Systems in Biomedicine
ST3: Ontologies for Biomedical Systems
ST4: HealthGrid & Cloud Computing
ST5: Technology Enhanced Learning in Medical Education
ST6: Intelligent Patient Management
ST7: Data Streams in Healthcare
ST8: Supporting Collaboration among Healthcare Workers
ST9: Telemedicine
ST10: Computer-Based Systems for Mental Health

INTENDED AUDIENCE

Engineers, scientists, clinicians and managers involved in medical computing projects are encouraged to submit papers to the symposium and/or attend the symposium. The symposium provides its attendees with an opportunity to experience state-of-the-art research and development in a variety of topics directly and indirectly related to their own work. In addition to research papers, keynote speakers and tutorial sessions it provides participants with an opportunity to come up-to-date on important technological issues. The symposium encourages the participation of students engaged in research/development in computer-based medical systems.
