Abstract

Purpose: To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first SPIE Medical Imaging meeting, we highlight some of the important publications published in the conference proceedings. Approach: We determined the top cited and downloaded papers. We also asked members of the editorial board of the Journal of Medical Imaging to select their favorite papers. Results: There was very little overlap between the three methods of highlighting papers. The downloads were mostly recent papers, whereas the favorite papers were mostly older papers. Conclusions: The three different methods combined provide an overview of the highlights of the papers published in the SPIE Medical Imaging conference proceedings over the last 50 years.

Keywords: SPIE Medical Imaging; conference proceedings; medical imaging.
