Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite researchers, practitioners, and innovators to contribute to our Special Issue on "Prospects in Technology of Medical/Surgical Robotics and Intelligent Systems". This issue aims to explore the latest advancements, challenges, and future directions in the development and application of robotics and intelligent systems in medical and surgical contexts. Topics of interest include robotic-assisted surgery, AI-driven diagnostic tools, machine learning applications in healthcare, human–robot interactions, telemedicine advancements, and the integration of intelligent systems in clinical workflows. We seek original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and insightful case studies that address technological innovations, clinical outcomes, ethical considerations, and the economic impact of these cutting-edge technologies. Contributions that demonstrate interdisciplinary approaches and collaboration between engineering, computer science, and medical fields are highly encouraged. Join us in shaping the future of healthcare by sharing your valuable insights and breakthroughs.

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.
