Abstract:
In recent years, there has been a significant interest in the development and application of body-
centric sensing systems for biomedical diagnosis. These technologies offer new opportunities for non-
invasive diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment in the field of healthcare. With novel advancements in
both hardware systems and sensing/imaging algorithms, body-centric sensing systems have become a
powerful tool for detecting diseases of the human body. This workshop aims to investigate the recent
progress, advancements, methodologies, applications, and challenges in this field.
Potential topics for submission include, but are not limited to: body sensor networks for healthcare,
electromagnetic medical imaging and sensing, sensors for physiological monitoring, communication
and computational modeling of epidemics, hybrid imaging techniques combining multiple modalities,
AI and big data for biomedicine, and medical image and signal processing.
We invite researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and healthcare sectors to contribute
their original research findings and expert reviews. We believe that this workshop will provide
valuable insights into the recent progress and potential applications of this field.
