Research resulting from the CRC for Biomedical Imaging Development (CRCBID) partnerships will be featured in a special session on Biomedical Electronics and Systems for Patient Diagnosis at the International Symposium for Integrated Circuits (ISIC) being held in Singapore in December 2009.

The session was initiated by Dr Ronny Veljanovski, Project Manager for the Detectors Stream of the CRCBID, who is also serving as a Technical Program Committee member of ISIC.The session will provide a series of presentations targeted towards patient diagnosis. The focus is on biomedical imaging applications such as X-ray based computed tomography (CT) using hybrid pixel detector technology.

“I am confident that the session will engage and captivate the audiences,” says Ronny, “by featuring the research and technical developments that the Monash Centre for Synchrotron Science (MCSS) and the Cooperative Research Centre for Biomedical Imaging Development (CRCBID) have produced over recent times. They’ll learn how our work has led to advances in biomedical imaging, as well as how that contribution will continue in the future.”

Researchers and engineering staff at MCSS/CRCBID submitted a total of six papers for peer review for this session, and formal acceptance letters were received in September 2009.
