CARS 2010, June 23-26, Geneva, Switzerland

The CARS congress with its associated journal is a facilitator of innovation and an important contributor to modern medicine on a worldwide basis. Founded in 1985, CARS with its focus on research and development for computer assisted systems and their applications in radiology and surgery has played a leading role in medical informatics for 25 years. Its growth and impact is due to CARS’s close collaboration with the ISCAS, EuroPACS, CAR, CAD and CMI societies which will jointly hold their annual meetings with CARS in Geneva in 2010.
The CARS Congress Organizing Committee invites you to be part of this extraordinary scientific/medical community which gives medicine a new perspective. Join us in Geneva in June 2010, if you work in the fields of radiology, surgery, engineering, informatics and/or healthcare management and have an interest in topics, such as
