Paper Numbering: Proceedings of SPIE follow an e-First publication model. A unique citation identifier (CID) number is assigned to each article at the time of publication. Utilization of CIDs allows articles to be fully citable as soon as they are published online, and connects the same identifier to all online and print versions of the publication. SPIE uses a six-digit CID article numbering system structured as follows:

  • The first four digits correspond to the SPIE volume number.

  • The last two digits indicate publication order within the volume using a Base 36 numbering system employing both numerals and letters. These two-number sets start with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B ... 0Z, followed by 10-1Z, 20-2Z, etc. The CID Number appears on each page of the manuscript.

Authors

Numbers in the index correspond to the last two digits of the six-digit citation identifier (CID) article numbering system used in Proceedings of SPIE. The first four digits reflect the volume number. Base 36 numbering is employed for the last two digits and indicates the order of articles within the volume. Numbers start with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B...0Z, followed by 10-1Z, 20-2Z, etc.

Introduction

This is the fourth year of the Digital Pathology conference, which was introduced at the SPIE Medical Imaging Symposium in Orlando, Florida in 2013. Every year since then we have seen increased interest, making Digital Pathology one of the more prominent conferences at the SPIE Medical Imaging symposium. The quality of the presented talks, posters, and resulting papers were outstanding. This is mainly due to our community submitting some of its best work to this conference as well as the hard work of our program committee, who carefully conducts a rigorous peer-review process to ensure that only the top papers are selected for presentation at the meeting.

The fourth Digital Pathology conference took place on March 2-3, 2016 at the Town & Country Resort and Convention Center in San Diego, California. The meeting formally began on March 2 with a plenary talk given by Dr. Kenneth J. Bloom entitled Current challenges in digital pathology. Dr. Bloom is a pathologist and an early adopter of information technology in pathology. Dr. Bloom discussed the current challenges in digital pathology from technical, regulatory and clinical acceptance terms. The keynote talk drew in over 200 attendees from all the various conferences as part of the SPIE Medical Imaging symposium. The attendance to the conference was relatively high.

A total of 49 presentations were made during the course of the meeting in both oral and poster form. The sessions included Trends; Precision Medicine and Grading; Detection and Segmentation; Machine Learning; and Emerging Technologies. At the end of the conference, there was also a special session on Emerging Global Opportunities where Dr. John Tomaszewski talked about Cancer diagnostics in Africa: leapfrog technology and volunteers transform care, which was well attended and followed by several questions.

We would like to acknowledge the excellent work in the following papers:

The continued success of the new Digital Pathology conference was in no small part to the outstanding efforts of the program committee, who carefully constructed the program, SPIE Conference Chairs Drs. Steven Horii and Berkman Sahiner, and SPIE staff, who kindly guided us through all the steps of the program organization.

Next year, the Digital Pathology conference at SPIE Medical Imaging will take place in Orlando, Florida. We look forward to seeing you there for another successful conference.

2016 Medical Imaging Award Recipients

Robert F. Wagner Best Student Paper Award

00003_psisdg9791_979101_page_13_1.jpg

Robert F. Wagner was an active scientist in the SPIE Medical Imaging meeting, starting with the first meeting in 1972 and continuing throughout his career. He ensured that the BRH, and subsequently the CDRH, was a sponsor for the early and subsequent Medical Imaging meetings, helping to launch and ensure the historical success of the meeting. The Robert F. Wagner All-Conference Best Student Paper Award (established 2014) is acknowledgment of his many important contributions to the Medical Imaging meeting and his many important advances to the field of medical imaging.

This award is cosponsored by:
