This book contains the full papers presented at the MICCAI 2013 workshop Bio-Imaging and Visualization for Patient-Customized Simulations (MWBIVPCS 2013). MWBIVPCS 2013 brought together researchers representing several fields, such as Biomechanics, Engineering, Medicine, Mathematics, Physics and Statistic.The contributions included in this book present and discuss new trends in those fields, using several methods and techniques, including the finite element method, similarity metrics, optimization processes, graphs, hidden Markov models, sensor calibration, fuzzy logic, data mining, cellular automation, active shape models, template matching and level sets. These serve as tools to address more efficiently different and timely applications involving signal and image acquisition, image processing and analysis, image segmentation, image registration and fusion, computer simulation, image based modelling, simulation and surgical planning, image guided robot assisted surgical and image based diagnosis.This book will appeal to researchers, PhD students and graduate students with multidisciplinary interests related to the areas of medical imaging, image processing and analysis, computer vision, image segmentation, image registration and fusion, scientific data visualization and image based modeling and simulation.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Workshop on Computer Assisted and Robotic Endoscopy, CARE 2014, held in conjunction with MICCAI 2014, in Boston, MA, USA, in September 2014. The 12 papers presented focus on recent technical advances associated with computer vision; medical device control systems;

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereedpost-conference proceedings of the Second International Workshop on ComputerAssisted and Robotic Endoscopy, CARE 2015, held in conjunction with MICCAI2015, in Munich, Germany, in October 2015.The 15 revised full papers were carefully selected out of20 initial submissions and focus on recent technical advances associated withcomputer vision; graphics; robotics and medical imaging; external trackingsystems; medical device control systems; information processing techniques;endoscopy; planning and simulation.
