Level set methods are numerical techniques which offer remarkably powerful tools for understanding, analyzing, and computing interface motion in a host of settings. When used for medical imaging analysis and segmentation, the function assigns a label to each pixel or voxel and optimality is defined based on desired imaging properties. This often includes a detection step to extract specific objects via segmentation. This allows for the segmentation and analysis problem to be formulated and solved in a principled way based on well-established mathematical theories. Level set method is a great tool for modeling time varying medical images and enhancement of numerical computations.

Ayman El-Baz is a University Scholar and Chair, Bioengineering Department at the University of Louisville, KY. He has over 15 years of hands-on experience in the fields of bio-imaging modeling and non-invasive computer-assisted diagnostic systems. He has developed new techniques for the accurate identification of probability mixtures for segmenting multi-modal images, new probability models, and model-based algorithms for recognizing lung nodules and blood vessels in magnetic resonance and computer tomography imaging systems, as well as new registration techniques based on multiple second-order signal statistics, all of which have been reported at multiple international conferences and journal articles. His work related to novel image analysis techniques for autism, dyslexia, and lung cancer has earned multiple awards including the Walter H. Coulter Foundation Early Career in Biomedical Engineering and a Research Scholar Grant from the American Cancer Society. He has authored or coauthored more than 300 technical articles (87 journals, 9 books, 39 book chapters, 144 refereed-conference papers, 74 abstracts published in proceedings and 12 US patents). Jasjit S. Suri is Chairman of Global Biomedical Technologies, Inc. Roseville, CA. He has spent over 30 years in the fields of biomedical engineering/sciences, software and hardware engineering and its management. He has developed products and worked extensively in the areas of breast, mammography, orthopedics (spine), neurology (brain), angiography, urology and image guided surgery. Dr. Suri has over 100 US/European Patents, 20 Trademarks, 35 books and over 550 peer reviewed articles. He is a Fellow of AIMBE (American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering).
