The 1st International workshop on (synchrotron-based) Cardiovascular X-ray Phase-Contrast Imaging is taking place in Barcelona at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra on May 13th – 14th, 2019.
This workshop is planned as a 2-day interactive event aimed at providing clinical, biomedical and engineering researchers with a comprehensive review of the current state of (synchrotron-based) X-ray Phase Contrast Imaging to reveal the micro-structure of cardiovascular tissues and whole organs with hereto unseen contrast and resolution.
The workshop will comprise of review lectures by experts in the field, hands-on sessions for the participants and tutorials on off-line processing of real images acquired by the faculty members.
The workshop is aimed at cardiologists, basic cardiovascular scientist, and image-analysis researchers interested in quantifying and understanding the micro-structure of heart and vessels from whole organ to single myocyte. We also strongly encourage participants to bring a poster presenting their own research.
