The Center for Biomedical Image Computing and Analytics (CBICA) was established in 2013, and focuses on the development and application of advanced computational and analytical techniques that quantify morphology and function from biomedical images, as well as on relating imaging phenotypes to genetic and molecular characterizations, and finally on integrating this information into diagnostic and predictive tools in an era of personalized medicine. As Imaging has entered its information era, there has been an increased need to understand and quantify the complex information conveyed by biomedical images. Computational methods offer the potential for extracting diverse and complex information from imaging data, for precisely quantifying it and therefore overcoming limitations of subjective visual interpretation, and for finding imaging patterns that relate to pathologies. They can therefore contribute significantly to automated, reproducible and quantitative interpretations of..
