Computer Assisted Surgery and Diagnostic (CASD) is a special research interest where computer technology is applied pre-, intra- and/or post-operatively to improve the outcome of any surgical procedures, assist diagnostic procedure and enhance related clinical database management system. The main purpose of this workshop is to provide an international discussion for academics, scientific researchers, clinical scientists, surgeons, engineers, and industrial partners for exchanging new ideas as well as the latest developments in this area of research. Secondary purpose is to promote research collaboration between participants from different countries and disciplines.
