Biography
Prof. Kikinis is the founding Director of the Surgical Planning Laboratory, Department of Radiology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, and a Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School. This laboratory was founded in 1990. In 2004 he was appointed Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School. In 2009 he was the inaugural recipient of the MICCAI Society "Enduring Impact Award". On February 24, 2010 he was appointed the Robert Greenes Distinguished Director of Biomedical Informatics in the Department of Radiology at Brigham and Women's Hospital. On January 1, 2014, he was appointed "Institutsleiter" of Fraunhofer MEVIS and Professor of Medical Image Computing at the University of Bremen. He is the Principal Investigator of the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC), a National Center for Biomedical Computing, an effort which is part of the NIH Roadmap Initiative), and of the Neuroimage Analysis Center (NAC), a Biomedical Technology Resource Center funded by (NIBIB). He is also the Director of Collaborations for the National Center for Image Guided Therapy (NCIGT), which is jointly sponsored by NIBIB. He has served and is serving as member of external advisory boards for a variety of centers and research efforts. He is the Principal Investigator of 3D Slicer, a software platform for single subject image analysis and visualization. 

Abstract 
The amount of data available in image guided medical interventions and surgeries is growing at a rapid rate. More data per device and more devices present during individual procedures result in a situation where the interventionalist is often overwhelmed by the amount and complexity of the data available. The lack of integration of the varying sources of information is due to the lack of adopted standards and is accentuating this problem. The presentation will cover some of the root causes of this situation and discus possible solutions.
