After a hiatus of two years, we will hold the 4th edition of the Breast Image Analysis (BIA) workshop in conjunction with MICCAI 2018. The aim of BIA is to bring together the growing number of researchers in the field given the significant amount of effort in the development of tools that can automate the analysis and synthesis of breast imaging. The main purpose of the workshop is to provide a stimulating environment for an in-depth discussion of important recent developments among experts in the field that enables future research impact in the field.

Proceedings published by SPRINGER under the “Lecture Notes in Computer Science” book series.

Authors will be invited to contribute to a chapter in a book about Breast Image Analysis.


Topics included but not limited to:

  • Computer-aided detection and diagnosis of breast cancer
  • Models for breast deformation
  • Multi-modality breast image registration, analysis, and fusion
  • Quantitative analysis of breast imaging modalities
  • Predicting and measuring response to treatment
  • Planning, simulation, and guidance for breast surgery and outcome prediction
  • Relating imaging biomarkers to risk factors and non-imaging information
  • Research related to the elucidation and improvement of clinical workflows
  • Breast density and parenchymal pattern analysis and risk assessment
  • Large scale breast image screening and analysis

Important Dates

  1. May 18th: results released for MICCAI’18 papers 
  2. NEW! ->  June 18th (11.59pm PST): BIA'18 paper submission deadline  <- NEW!
  3. July 11th: BIA'18 paper notification of acceptance
  4. July 17th: BIA'18 Camera-ready version submission
  5. Workshop Day: September 16th (AM Session at  "Press Room" at the Conference Center)

Submission Guidelines

● BIA uses the same guidelines as MICCAI'18 main conference submissions. Find them in MICCAI Author's Guide.
● Papers should be formatted in Lecture Notes in Computer Science style. Template can be found HERE. The file format for submissions is Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). Other formats will not be accepted.
● The maximum number of pages is 8. Submissions exceeding this limit will be rejected without review.
● You should not modify any of the formatting commands in the style files. Any modifications found may result in automatic rejection.
● The review process is double blind. Submissions are to be fully anonymized.
● It is also possible to submit supplementary material with your submission (see section 5 of MICCAI Author's Guide for more information about the format). The deadline for submitting the supplementary material is the same as for the main paper.
