Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Medical imaging is fundamental to modern healthcare, supporting accurate diagnosis, therapeutic planning, and patient follow-up across a broad spectrum of diseases. Recent advances in imaging techniques, computational methods, and hardware development have significantly expanded the capabilities and applications of diagnostic imaging. This Special Issue aims to present cutting-edge research and innovative developments across various modalities, including computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, radiography, interventional radiology and hybrid imaging techniques. Particular attention will be given to novel acquisition methods, image reconstruction algorithms, quantitative imaging, and image-guided interventions. Furthermore, the integration of artificial intelligence, deep learning, and big data analytics into medical imaging workflows is transforming clinical practice and decision-making processes. Contributions that address patient safety, radiation dose optimization, and quality assurance in imaging are also welcome. The goal of this Special Issue is to bring together researchers, clinicians, and industry experts to share knowledge, foster collaboration, and highlight future directions in medical imaging science and technology.

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.
