Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advances in medical technology have generated new sources of information used to understand the behavior of several diseases through images. The analysis of medical images is important for processing information from different tasks, such as the use of CAD tools, diagnosis assistance, monitoring, individual treatments, remote health care, and case identification, among others. Interdisciplinary research is of utmost importance to continue to improve our knowledge and the development of new technologies. Moreover, access to new images has allowed us to observe information beyond our visual abilities.
However, this new information facilitates the analysis and identification of health conditions. We must use new optical, computational, and electronic methods to acquire and study these medical images.
This Special Issue aims to compile new contributions to medical image processing from acquisition to analysis and interpretation. Contributions from other areas and multidisciplinary research are welcome. We warmly encourage you to contribute to this collection in Applied Sciences.
Areas of focus include, but are not limited to, image processing and analysis; medical image devices; image classification and segmentation; machine learning and deep learning for medical images; optical and photonics biosensing; development of CADe and CADx tools; medical measurements and instrumentation; biomedical image analysis; virtual reality in medicine; IoT in medicine; biosignal processing; and embedded systems.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
