The 2019 IEEE International Conference on Imaging Systems and Techniques is the premier forum for the presentation of technological advances and research results and will take place jointly with the IEEE International School of Imaging in Abu Dhabi, December 9-10, 2019.
The conference is sponsored by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which is the world’s largest professional association, with nearly 500,000 members, dedicated to advancing technological innovation and excellence for the benefits of humanity.
The scope of the IST is to explore, advance, and generate new knowledge on multifaceted imaging design principles, systems, and techniques, with applications in medical imaging, genomics and artificial intelligence, aimed at the exploring of novel pathophysiology and metabolic mechanisms and measure therapeutic efficacy; machine learning and data mining solutions utilizing medical imaging to assist clinicians and healthcare providers to bring big data to personalized medicine; imaging and cognitive machine vision systems, imaging informatics, robotic vision systems, with applications in Industry 4, healthcare, autonomous driving and navigation, Internet of Things (IoT), Space and Resources exploration; emerging imaging trends that would lead ultimately to novel systems and technologies, standards and metrology, and systems with unsurpassable image quality, scalability, and miniaturization capabilities.
The 2019 IEEE International Conference on Imaging Systems and Techniques aims to provide a forum for prestigious specialists and scholars to share their experiences and demonstrate frontier research results in all respects of imaging technologies, systems, and techniques.
Engineers, and scientists from industry, government, academia, and healthcare who want to report novel scientific results, technological and clinical advances in the multidisciplinary areas of imaging systems, are invited to attend the IST Conference and interact with major worldwide experts.

Submission Details
The conference caters to both practitioners and academics, providing a forum to exchange ideas and experiences on technology, methodology, applications, study cases, and practical experiences. Given this unique desire, two types of paper submissions are offered:
- Research papers: Manuscripts addressing novel ideas, theoretical issues, technology, methodology, or detailed studies. These academic-oriented papers will be peer reviewed and prioritized according to their contribution. Note: student papers should be submitted in this category and will be reviewed as such.
- Case studies and practical experiences: Extended abstracts presenting practical ideas, lessons learned, and real-world achievements. These papers are typically 1-3 pages in length. Accepted authors have the option to publish a full 8-page paper. These abstracts are reviewed for relevance but not necessarily academic contribution.
Table top exhibits are available on a first come, first serve basis. Posters are also being considered as an unpublished option.
