Resumo:
There has been a huge explosion in medical imaging, in spatial and temporal
resolution, in imaging many processes as well as organs. New mathematical
tools have entered the game, which are not so elementary. It's important to
have some basic understanding of them, to know how what to expect of them.
In particular, infinite-dimensional manifolds of 
shapes and infinite-dimensional
groups of diffeomorphisms with associated Riemannian metrics have been used.
This talk is a step-by-step intro to what these tools may be good for.
