The four-volume set LNCS 11070, 11071, 11072, and 11073 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2018, held in Granada, Spain, in September 2018. The 373 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 1068 submissions in a double-blind review process. The papers have been organized in the following topical sections: Part I: Image Quality and Artefacts; Image Reconstruction Methods; Machine Learning in Medical Imaging; Statistical Analysis for Medical Imaging; Image Registration Methods. Part II: Optical and Histology Applications: Optical Imaging Applications; Histo...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Workshop on PRedictive Intelligence in MEdicine, PRIME 2018, held in conjunction with MICCAI 2018, in Granada, Spain, in September 2018. The 20 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 23 submissions. The main aim of the workshop is to propel the advent of predictive models in a broad sense, with application to medical data. Particularly, the workshop will admit papers describing new cutting-edge predictive models and methods that solve challenging problems in the medical field.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition, ICIAR 2018, held in Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal, in June 2018. The 91 full papers presented together with 15 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 179 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Enhancement, Restoration and Reconstruction, Image Segmentation, Detection, Classication and Recognition, Indexing and Retrieval, Computer Vision, Activity Recognition, Traffic and Surveillance, Applications, Biomedical Image Analysis, Diagnosis and Screening of Ophthalmic Diseases, and Challenge on Breast Cancer Histology Images.
Health crises such as the SARS epidemic and H1N1 have rekindled interest in the 1918 influenza pandemic, which swept the globe after the First World War and killed approximately fifty million people. Epidemic Encounters examines the pandemic in Canada, where one-third of the population took ill and fifty-five thousand people died. What role did social inequalities play in determining who survived? How did the authorities, health care workers, and ordinary citizens respond? Contributors answer these questions as they pertained to both local and national contexts. In the process, they offer new insights into medical history’s usefulness in the struggle against epidemic disease.
Lithium plating is not only the most severe ageing mechanism in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) but also becoming more and more important due the increasing presence of electric vehicles (EVs). In EVs the extreme conditions causing lithium plating, like very high charging currents and low environment temperatures, are much more prevalent than in consumer electronics. Due to the high number of factors that influence the plating process, ranging from the cell geometry to the chemical composition of the electrolyte, a deeper understanding of the plating process is still lacking. Without this knowledge it is hard to design cells in a plating resistant way, or to operate cells under the ideal condit...
