Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is transforming oncology, reshaping how cancer is detected, diagnosed, and treated. This Special Issue, "AI-Based Applications in Cancers", highlights the growing impact of AI across the cancer care continuum—from early detection and risk prediction to precision therapy and real-time monitoring. Leveraging machine learning, deep learning, Bayesian networks, causal learning, large language models (LLMs), and other data-driven approaches, researchers and clinicians can now analyze complex biomedical data with greater accuracy and efficiency. AI applications in radiology, pathology, genomics, and clinical decision-making are enabling more personalized, timely, and effective interventions. At the same time, the integration of AI into clinical practice presents key challenges, including data quality, model performance, training efficiency, transparency, and ethical considerations. This Special Issue brings together cutting-edge research and multidisciplinary perspectives to showcase the latest innovations at the intersection of AI and cancer care. By fostering collaboration between computational scientists and healthcare professionals, we aim to advance the development and responsible deployment of AI tools that improve patient outcomes. We invite authors to contribute original research papers to this Special Issue as we explore the opportunities and challenges of harnessing AI to address one of the most critical health issues of our time.
