title = "Bioengineering and imaging research opportunities workshop V: A white paper on imaging and characterizing structure and function in native and engineered tissues",
abstract = "The fifth Bioengineering and Image Research Opportunities Workshop (BIROW V) was held on January 18-19, 2008. As with previous BIROW meetings, the purpose of BIROW V was to identify and characterize research and engineering opportunities in biomedical engineering and imaging. The topic of this BIROW meeting was Imaging and Characterizing Structure and Function in Native and Engineered Tissues. Under this topic, four areas were explored in depth: (1) Heterogeneous single-cell measurements and their integration into tissue and organism models; (2) Functional, molecular and structural imaging of engineered tissue in vitro and in vivo; (3) New technologies for characterizing cells and tissues in situ; (4) Imaging for targeted cell, gene and drug delivery.",

note = "Funding Information: The fifth Bioengineering and Imaging Research Opportunities Workshop (BIROW V) was held on January 18–19, 2008 in North Bethesda, MD. The name of the workshop was changed slightly from preceding BIROW workshops (which were known as Biomedical Imaging Research Opportunities Workshops) to emphasize biomedical engineering as well as imaging. BIROW V was sponsored by the Academy of Radiology Research (ARR), American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM), American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE), International Society for Analytical Cytology (ISAC), and the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering which provided partial financial support for the meeting. Twenty-one additional societies were included as participating organizations. The purpose of BIROW V (as of BIROWs I–IV which were held in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006), was to identify and characterize opportunities for scientific research and engineering development in biomedical engineering and imaging.
