Invited Session on Computational Human Models (EMBC 2017)
3-part invited session on computational human models organized at EMBC 2017 by Drs. Sergey Makarov, Greg Noetscher, and Marc Horner. The session invites authors and participants interested in:
- Patient-specific models and model deformation algorithms
- EM&RF simulations including real-time methods
- Large model datasets, their construction, and distribution
- Body region models, therapeutic applications
- Regulatory aspects
