Medicine began with intuition, imagination, observation, and experience, gradually evolving into a science over the centuries. In recent years, with the aid of engineering and information technology, biomedical engineering has emerged as a high–tech field generating innovation in such areas as medical imaging, bioinformatics, MEMS and nanotechnology, new biomaterials and sensors, medical robotics, and neurobiology. Scientists and engineers in this field have recently been working towards such advances as developing artificial organs that mimic natural human organs, conducting telemedicine and performing surgeries with robots, creating a laboratory–on–a–chip, and controlling robots through natural animal brain matter.<br>BioMED 2007 is intended to be an international forum for researchers and practitioners interested in biomedical engineering to exchange the latest research, results, and ideas in these areas. All papers submitted to this conference will be peer evaluated by at least two reviewers. Acceptance will be based primarily on originality and contribution.<br><b>Keywords:</b> Medical Imaging, Image Processing, and Signal Processing<br>* Computed Tomography<br>* Data Representation and Visualization<br>* Integrated Medical Image Analysis<br>* Magnetic Resonance Imaging<br>* Medical Data Storage and Compression Techniques<br>* Medical Image Processing<br>* Nuclear Medicine<br>* Optical Imaging<br>* Signal Processing<br>* Ultrasound Imaging<br>Medical Devices, Measurement, and Instrumentation<br>* Biosensors and Transducers<br>* Data and Signal Acquisition<br>* Electronic Medical Devices<br>* Intelligent Instrumentation<br>* Lasers and Optical Systems<br>* Measurement and Instrumentation<br>* Microtechnology and BioMEMS<br>* Noninvasive Measurement<br>* Reliability and Failure<br>* Robotics<br>Modelling, Simulation, Systems, and Control<br>* Biomedical Computing<br>* Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Radiation<br>* Biomechanics<br>* Control Systems<br>* Electromagnetic Field Simulation<br>* Hemodynamics<br>* Sports and Ergonomics Simulation<br>* Surgery Simulation and Simulators<br>* Virtual Reality<br>Health Care Technology<br>* Clinical Assessment and Patient Diagnosis<br>* Artificial Organs<br>* Computer–aided Surgery<br>* Electrotherapy<br>* Health Care Information Systems<br>* Implant Technology<br>* Patient Monitoring<br>* Prosthetics and Orthotics<br>* Radiotherapy<br>* Rehabilitation Engineering<br>* Telemedicine<br>Molecular Bioengineering<br>* Labs–on–Chips<br>* Bioinformatics<br>* Biomaterials<br>* Bio–nanotechnology<br>* Drug Delivery and Pharmacokinetics<br>* Molecular and Cellular Engineering<br>* Tissue Engineering<br>
