IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS) 2011

The 2011 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium will be held in Orlando at the Caribe Royale from October 18 - 21, 2011. In March 2011, based on extensive uncertainty resulting from the M-9 earthquake that devastated part of Japan, the IEEE UFFC AdCom approved the grave decision to move venue from the original choice (Kobe, Japan) to a backup venue in the USA. The decision to shift the venue was supported by the central Conference Management function within the entire IEEE and many of the local Japanese representatives associated with planning the meeting. The IEEE UFFC society is committed to returning the conference to Japan in 2014, approval of UltraCom and AdCom is pending though.
