Preface
th
As organizers of the 7 MICCAI Workshop on Augmented Environments for
Computer-Assisted Interventions (AE-CAI 2012), and editors of this volume, it
is our pleasure to present to you the second edition of the Springer LNCS AE-
CAI proceedings. This volume includes selected papers from those presented at
the AE-CAI 2012 workshop held in conjunction with the Medical Image Com-
puting and Computer-Assisted Interventions (MICCAI) 2012 conference, held
on October 5, 2012, in beautiful Nice, Cote d’Azur, France.
AE-CAI 2012 was the seventh in a series of workshops formerly known as Aug-
mented Medical Imaging and Augmented Realities for Computer-Aided Surgery
(AMI-ARCS), following AMI-ARCS 2003, 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2009, AE-CAI
2011, and the Tutorial on Augmented Reality in 2007. Over the past several
years, the satellite workshops and tutorials at MICCAI have experienced in-
creased popularity. Their registration numbers in 2012 (over 1,000 registrants)
competed with the registration numbers for the main conference (∼ 1,100 reg-
istrants). The 2012 edition of AE-CAI reached just under 50 registrants, not
including the members of the Organizing and Program Committees. There was
also an impressive number of attendees (∼ 60 attendees), making AE-CAI one
of the best received and best attended workshops at MICCAI 2012.
The 2012 edition of the workshop was a joint effort between the Biomedical
Imaging Resource at Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN, USA), the Imaging Research
Laboratories at Robarts Research Institute (London, ON, Canada), and the
University of Nancy (Nancy, France). These groups have had a long-standing
tradition in medical image analysis and image-guided intervention research and
have been at the forefront of technological and translational development in this
field for the past three decades. In addition, a Program Committee consisting of
40 international experts served as reviewers for the submitted papers.
In medical imaging, virtual and augmented reality environments aim to pro-
vide the physician with enhanced visualization and perception of the patient,
either by fusing various imaging modalities or by presenting image-derived in-
formation overlaid on the physician’s view, establishing a direct relation be-
tween the image and the patient. The objective of the AE-CAI workshop is to
attract scientific contributions that offer solutions to the technical problems in
the area of augmented and virtual environments for computer-assisted interven-
tions, and to provide a venue for the dissemination of papers describing both
complete systems and clinical applications. AE-CAI 2012 attracted researchers
in computer science, biomedical engineering, physics, and clinical medicine en-
gaged in the development of virtual and augmented environments for medical
image visualization and image-guided interventions. As clinical impact is a core
VI Preface
element of the workshop, authors described their work in the context of necessary
developments, research questions, and potential obstacles that must be overcome
to enable and facilitate effective translation of the proposed work from lab to
clinic. The scientific program focused on the dissemination of innovative research
in image registration and fusion, calibration, visualization and 3D perception,
hardware and optical design, real-time implementation, as well as validation,
clinical applications, and clinical evaluation.
This workshop has traditionally included keynote addresses from leading
figures in the field and 2012 was no exception. Richard Robb (Mayo Clinic,
Rochester, MN, USA) spoke on the importance of building technology centered
on best addressing the patient needs and gave several compelling examples of
medical imaging and image-guided intervention breakthroughs that have served
this purpose. Ren´e Anxionnat (University of Strasbourg, France) described state-
of-the-art developments in augmented fluoroscopy and its applications in vascu-
lar neuroradiology for intraoperative guidance. The workshop concluded with an
interactive panel discussion on the encountered successes and challenges of aug-
mented, virtual, and image-guided intervention platforms toward their clinical
translation and implementation.
AE-CAI 2012 attracted 22 paper submissions from 10 countries. The sub-
missions were distributed for review to the Program Committee, ensuring all
potential conflicts of interest were eliminated. Each paper was critically evalu-
ated by at least four reviewers, who provided detailed critiques and constructive
comments to the authors and workshop editorial board. Based on the reviews,
10 papers were selected for oral presentation (according to the reviewers’ scores
and suitability of the work for oral/poster presentation) and 8 were selected as
poster presentations. The authors were asked to revise their initial submissions
for publication in the Electronic Workshop Proceedings – made available to the
workshop registrants on USB flash drives. Following the workshop, 14 of the pa-
pers presented at the meeting (representing 64% of all submitted papers) were
selected for consideration of publication in this Springer LNCS volume, along
with two editorials from our keynote speakers. The authors were asked to include
both the reviewers’ suggestions as well as the feedback received during the work-
shop, and resubmit their manuscripts, along with their response to reviewers,
for a final review process toward publication in this volume. Each revised paper
was reviewed by the volume editors to ensure that all reviewers’ comments were
properly addressed and incorporated into the final version of the manuscripts
enclosed in this collection.
On behalf of the AE-CAI 2012 Organizing Committee, we would like to
extend our sincere thanks to all Program Committee members for providing
detailed and timely reviews of the submitted manuscripts. We greatly appre-
ciate their support in providing valuable feedback. We also thank all authors,
presenters, and attendees at AE-CAI 2012 for their scientific contribution, enthu-
siasm, and support. Lastly, we would like to express our most sincere thanks to
Preface VII
Northern Digital Inc. (NDI, Waterloo, ON, Canada) for their generous sponsor-
ship, which enabled us to award the top oral and poster presentations at AE-CAI
2012. We hope that you all will enjoy reading this volume. We look forward to
your continuing contribution and participation in the MIAR & AE-CAI joint
events to be hosted in 2013 in Nagoya, Japan.
