The congress venue was OnYado Toho, a traditional Japanese hotel in Higashiyama Onsen, which is approximately 15 minutes from Aizu-wakamatsu station by car and approximately 4 hours from Narita Airport by train and shinkansen. The congress attracted 183 participants from 21 countries. Eight categories of parallel sessions and two poster sessions were held.

In the plenary lectures, Professor Xi-Cheng Zhang presented "Terahertz Wave Imaging Technology", Professor Lynn Gladden explained the "Latest Development in Dynamic MRI of Multi-Phase Systems", and Professor Hideaki Koizumi discussed "Optical Topography for Higher-order Brain-function Imaging and its Practical Applications".
