Information Processing in Medical Imaging , or IPMI , is a conference held every two years focused on the fields of applied mathematics , computer science , image processing and image analysis (particularly of medical images ); applied results in neuroscience , cardiology , and microscopy are also frequently considered. IPMI is the longest standing conference focused on medical images having first met, organized by Dr. Francois Erbsmann, in Brussels in 1969. IPMI 2025 is scheduled to be held in Kos , Greece in June 2025.

63-436: A variety of phenomena such as the underlying physics of the energy-tissue interaction as between ultrasound and air, susceptibility artifacts, data acquisition errors (such as patient motion), or a reconstruction algorithm 's inability to represent the anatomy. Physicians typically learn to recognize some of these artifacts to avoid mistaking them for actual pathology . In ultrasound imaging, several assumptions are made from

105-641: Is approximately equal to twice the percentage of citizens making more than $ 50,000 annually; if 60% of citizens make more than $ 50,000 annually, this would predict that the approval rating will be 120%. This prediction is a statistical artifact, since it is spurious to use the model when the percentage of citizens making over $ 50,000 is so high, and gross error to predict an approval rating greater than 100%. In medical imaging , artifacts are misrepresentations of tissue structures produced by imaging techniques such as ultrasound , X-ray , CT scan , and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These artifacts may be caused by

189-418: The community through vigorous evaluation of avant-garde developments in medical imaging. To permit such depth the conference is limited to a maximum of 120 participants. Reflecting its focus on depth and community, IPMI is often held in a relatively small and sometimes remote location. Attendees are accommodated together in collective housing in campus or university dorms, meals are typically enjoyed together by
210-414: The computer system to interpret the returning echoes. These are: echoes originate only from the main ultrasound beam (while there are side lobes and grating lobes apart from the main ultrasound beam); echoes returns to transducer after a single reflection (while an echo can be reflected several times before reaching the transducer); depth of an object relates directly to the amount of time for an echo to reach
231-715: The electrophysiological structure being studied. These artifact signals may stem from, but are not limited to: light sources; monitoring equipment issues; utility frequency (50 Hz and 60 Hz); or undesired electrophysiological signals such as EMG presenting on an EEG -, EP -, ECG -, or EOG - signal. Offending artifacts may obscure, distort, or completely misrepresent the true underlying electrophysiological signal sought. In radar signal processing , some echoes can be related to fixed objects ( clutter ), multipath returns, jamming , atmospheric effect ( brightband or attenuation ), anomalous propagation , and many other effects. All those echoes must be filtered in order to obtain

#1732794617478252-422: The entire community, and by a string of luck IPMI conferences have thus far been held in close proximity to a bar open sufficiently late to host continued scholarly debate. Further, IPMI fosters collaboration through its several social functions including the traditional soccer match and activities that take advantage of the typically remote setting. For its tradition, intellectual value, and community building IPMI

In statistics , statistical artifacts are apparent effects that are introduced inadvertently during analysis of data rather than by the process being studied. In computer science , digital artifacts are anomalies introduced into digital signals as a result of digital signal processing . In microscopy , visual artifacts are sometimes introduced during

336-776: The meeting. Commemorating his contribution as the conference founder, beginning with IPMI 1987 the Francois Erbsmann prize is awarded by the IPMI board each conference to one young investigator for outstanding contribution to the field. This investigator must have given their first oral presentation at the current IPMI. Standing with tradition, IPMI includes a single track of presentations on novel methodology wherein speakers are allotted sufficient time to describe their contributions in thorough detail. Discussions following each presentation have no time-limit permitting stimulating debate and resolution of any questions or comments regarding
357-419: The processing of samples into slide form. In econometrics , which focuses on computing relationships between related variables , an artifact is a spurious finding, such as one based on either a faulty choice of variables or an over-extension of the computed relationship. Such an artifact may be called a statistical artifact . For instance, imagine a hypothetical finding that presidential approval rating
378-451: The transducer (while an echo may reflect several times, delaying the time for the echo return to the transducer); speed of ultrasound in human tissue is constant, echoes travel in a straight path. and acoustic energy of an echo is uniformly attenuated. When these assumptions are not maintained, artifacts occur. In medical electrophysiological monitoring, artifacts are anomalous (interfering) signals that originate from some source other than
399-485: The work, alternatives to it, additional possible applications, etc. Further, the paper associated with each presentation is assigned a study-group of attendees in advance rendering a portion of the community prepared to provide real time peer discussion in high technical detail. Study groups often pair younger researchers with field experts encouraging an exchange of experience and new ideas. Often, discussions and debates are continued through meals and social activities uniting
420-547: Was first organized by Francois Erbsmann and collaborators in Brussels in 1969. That first conference was held under the title, “Information Processing in Scintigraphy ” as at the time the meeting was focused on restoration of those images derived by nuclear medicine . Since that first instance, the conference has successfully met every two years. The third instance of the meeting, organized by Stephen Pizer and Charles Metz,
441-548: Was its first appearance in the United States and since that occasion IPMI has alternated its venue between the U.S. and Europe. It was the 1977 meeting organized by Randy Brill in Nashville that first used the name IPMI to reflect the broadening community of physicists, mathematicians, computer scientists, and biologists interested in medical image computing in its many manifestations and applications who now contributed to
