Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Radiology is undergoing a transformative evolution in the third millennium, driven by cutting-edge technological advancements and an increasing emphasis on patient-centered care. This Special Issue will explore the intersection of innovative diagnostic techniques and personalized medicine, fostering an inclusive dialogue among researchers, clinicians, and industry professionals.
We welcome submissions that explore the following topics:
- Advanced imaging technologies, including AI-assisted radiology, deep learning applications, and hybrid imaging modalities.
- Precision diagnostics, focusing on patient-specific imaging protocols, tailored approaches, and theranostics.
- Multimodal and integrative radiology, bridging traditional and emerging diagnostic tools to achieve holistic patient evaluation.
- Human-centered radiology, addressing patient experience, ethical considerations, and the role of radiologists in personalized care.
- Big data and radiomics, leveraging large-scale datasets for predictive modeling and decision support.
- Innovations in contrast-enhanced imaging and functional imaging, optimizing diagnostic accuracy while minimizing risks.
- Radiology in precision oncology and targeted therapies, adapting imaging to the molecular and genetic landscape of diseases.
- Future perspectives exploring how radiology will shape personalized medicine in the coming decades.
This Special Issue is open to all disciplines within diagnostic imaging, and we encourage contributions that bridge different areas of expertise, from basic research to clinical applications, ensuring a broad and interdisciplinary impact.
