Nearly 300 scientists, engineers, and clinicians attended i2i in 2018. They came from four continents and represented more than 80 primary affiliations with academic centers, industry firms, and tech startups.
Workshop attendees shared insights into paradigm-shifting technologies in imaging software, hardware, image analysis, and image-guided therapy.
