ICMIP-09
October 23-25, 2009
Nanjing, China

Yangtze River 2009 International Conference on Medical Imaging Physics & The 5th National Annual Meeting of Medical Imaging Physics will be held in Nanjing, China on October 23-25, 2009. The conference is sponsored by Chinese Society of Medical Physics(CSMP), Life Electronics Society of Chinese Institute of Electronics (LES,CIE), North American Chinese Medical Physicists Association (NACMPA) and Overseas Chinese Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (OCSMRM).

This conference is intended to facilitate scientific exchange, to promote medical physics research, application and education, and to provide a platform for medical physicists and scientists in related fields worldwide to foster communications, collaborations and friendship.
The contents of the conference will cover the radiodiagnostics (including X-ray, CR, DR, CT, MRI, etc), image-guided therapy (IGT) and image-guided radiotherapy (4D CT, Cone-beam CT, IGRT, etc), ultrasound in medicine and engineering (including ultrasound diagnosis, interventional ultrasound, ultrasound engineering, HIFU, etc), nuclear medicine, interventional radiology, medical imaging and computer image processing, medical imaging information management system (PACS/RIS, IHE, etc), biomedical photonics, nanotechnology, bioinformatics and so on.

Call for Papers：
The conference abstracts should only include the latest, non-published research results and scientific findings in the above-mentioned fields. The articles should be in the form of abstract and full text. Both Chinese and English are allowed. The excellent papers (only in English) that are judged and recommended by experts can be published on Transactions of Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, which is indexed by EI.

The abstracts should consist of the following 4 components: objectives, materials and methods, results and conclusions. The words in full text should be limited to 4000 and the format of the article should be according to the requirements for manuscripts submitted to Transactions of Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (See Appendix V). The article should be submitted to ICMIP-09@nuaa.edu.cn. The deadline for submission is July 15th, 2009. Once accepted, the authors will be informed after September 1st, 2009 by email.

XXIVth ICMRBS
August 22-27, 2010
Cairns, Australia

It is a pleasure to invite you to attend the XXIVth International Conference on Magnetic Resonance in Biological Systems, to be held August 22-27, 2010. The venue will be the Convention Centre in Cairns, a major regional city which is also a gateway to the magnificent Great Barrier Reef and the tropical north of Australia.

The ICMRBS is held biennially and brings together a broad cross-section of experts from around the world with interests in the applications of all aspects of magnetic resonance in biology. ICMRBS XXIV will maintain that tradition, featuring plenary and keynote lectures and concurrent sessions that cover new methods development and biological applications of high-resolution and solid-state NMR, EPR, in vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy, metabolomics, and magnetic resonance imaging. This conference is the major scientific event in the field of magnetic resonance applications in the biological sciences.

Recent conferences have attracted delegates from all over the world, with a growing number of participants from Asia. It is fitting that the XXIVth conference will be held in this region.

On behalf of the Organising and Program Committees, I extend a warm welcome to delegates from around the globe.
