PROJECT SUMMARY Funding is requested to support graduate student and postdoctoral trainees at the 2017 IEEE Medical Imaging Conference (MIC) in Atlanta, GA, which will, as is traditional, be held jointly with the IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium (NSS) and the Workshop on Room Temperature Semiconductor Detectors (RTSD). This annual international conference is the largest and most important meeting dedicated to technical developments in radiotracer-based medical imaging methods, particularly positron-emission tomography (PET) and single-photon-emission computed tomography (SPECT). Additional topics of interest include development of other tomographic modalities, such as novel CT techniques, and multimodality imaging such as PET/CT, SPECT/CT and PET/MR. The emphasis is on detectors, imaging systems, and algorithms for image reconstruction and image quantitation. At the most recent IEEE NSS-MIC meeting in 2015 in San Diego, over 1300 papers were presented and total attendance was 1810, with at least half of the attendees declaring the Medical Imaging Conference to be their primary interest. This grant will provide twenty graduate students and post doctoral trainees specifically identifying MIC as their primary interest with $500 each towards conference registration and accommodations. Awardees will be selected based on objective criteria, with an aim towards enabling attendance by a broad spectrum of students including women, minorities, people with disabilities, and those with families.

项目总结 申请资金以支持2017年IEEE的研究生和博士后实习生 在佐治亚州亚特兰大举行的医学成像会议(MIC)，按照传统，将与 IEEE核科学研讨会(NSS)和室温研讨会 半导体探测器(RTSD)。这个一年一度的国际会议是规模最大、规模最大的 致力于放射性示踪剂医学成像技术发展的重要会议 方法，特别是正电子发射断层扫描(PET)和单光子发射计算 断层扫描(SPECT)。其他感兴趣的主题包括其他断层扫描的发展 模式，如新的CT技术，以及多模式成像，如PET/CT、SPECT/CT 和PET/MR，重点是探测器、成像系统和图像算法 重建和图像量化。在2015年于旧金山举行的IEEE NSS-MIC最近一次会议上 迭戈，提交了1300多篇论文，总出席人数为1810人，至少有一半的人 与会者宣布医学影像会议是他们的主要兴趣。这笔赠款将 提供20名研究生和博士后实习生，特别确定MIC是他们的 主要利息为每人500美元，用于会议登记和住宿。获奖者 将根据客观标准进行遴选，目的是使广大与会者能够出席 学生的范围包括妇女、少数民族、残疾人和有家庭的人。
