This jointly-sponsored DOE/NIH workshop "Advancing Medical Care through Discovery in the Physical Sciences: Radiation Detection" is the second of what is expected to become an annual series. The series is to be a forum for discussion of capabilities, challenges and emerging technologies of interest to both the medical and physical scientific communities. The first workshop aimed broadly at enhancing an on-going dialogue of shared information for synergistic advancements. While maintaining the latter dialogue and search for synergy, this second workshop focuses on Radiation Detection, with the following topics:

  • Cameras, Detectors for External Imaging – X-rays, protons, and beyond
  • Cameras, Detectors for Internal Diagnostic Imaging – SPECT, PET, and beyond
  • Cameras, Detectors for Therapeutics
  • Electronics and Data Acquisition
  • Image Reconstruction, Pre and Post Processing
  • Applications of Artificial Intelligence

Poster submissions are encouraged.
