Simulation and Synthesis in Medical Imaging

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Simulation and Synthesis in Medical Imaging, SASHIMI 2023, held in conjunction with MICCAI 2023, in Vancouver, Canada, in October 2023.

The 13 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 16 submissions. They span a wide range of topics relevant to SASHIMI, and reflect recent developments in methods for segmentation, image-to-image translation, super-resolution, and image synthesis. Applications include MRI imaging, echocardiography, PET, and digital pathology.
