> which is a rapidly evolving field. Papers are solicited in the following
> areas:
>
> Mechanisms and robotics for surgery (including frameless as well as
> conventional stereotaxic mechanisms)
> Human assisted devices
> Kinematics and dynamics for human modeling
> Haptic Interfaces and VR for medical applications
> Minimally invasive devices and systems
> MEMS based medical devices
> Surgical simulators
> Human-Computer Interface mechanisms
> Applications of interventional systems in surgical specialties such as
> orthopedics, neurosurgery, otolaryngology, cardiovascular surgery.
> Contributions are expected from engineers, physicians, surgeons, health
> care providers, researchers, entrepreneurs, educators, and inventors
> interested in these technologies.
