In 2014, the annual meeting of Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention (MICCAI) was held from September 14 to 18 in Boston, USA. This was the seventeenth annual meeting for MICCAI, but only the second time it was held in Boston since MICCAI community met there in 1996. As before, the meeting was held on sunny days at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology campus. The conferencewas characterized byvibrant and constructive discussions on biomedical image computing, computer-assisted interventions, and medical robotics. In total, we invited 253 poster presentations selected from 862 paper submissions following a rigorous review procedure by 52 experts in the field. The current special issue of the International Journal of Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery (IJCARS) includes five research papers nominated from this selective list of excellent papers presented at the MICCAI meeting.
