This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the International Workshop on Medical Computer Vision, MCV 2016, and of the International Workshop on Bayesian and grAphical Models for Biomedical Imaging, BAMBI 2016, held in Athens, Greece, in October 2016, held in conjunction with the 19th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2016. The 13 papers presented in MCV workshop and the 6 papers presented in BAMBI workshop were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The goal of the MCV workshop is to explore the use of "big data" algorithms for harvesting, organizing and learning from large-scale medical imaging data sets and for general-purpose automatic understanding of medical images. The BAMBI workshop aims to highlight the potential of using Bayesian or random field graphical models for advancing research in biomedical image analysis.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed prost-workshop proceedings of the International Workshop on Medical Computer Vision: Algorithms for Big Data, MCS 2015, held in Munich, Germany, in October 2015, held in conjunction with the 18th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2015. The workshop shows well the current trends and tendencies in medical computer vision and how the techniques can be used in clinical work and on large data sets. It is organized in the following sections: predicting disease; atlas exploitation and avoidance; machine learning based analyses; advanced methods for image analysis; poster sessions. The 10 full, 5 short, 1 invited papers and one overview paper presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions.
