Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Computer-assisted diagnosis and management for traumatic brain injury (TBI) and stroke refer to using computerized tools and algorithms to help healthcare professionals accurately diagnose and manage various stages of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation after TBI and stroke.
Computer-assisted diagnosis can help to quickly and accurately diagnose the severity of the injury and to predict the long-term outcomes of TBI and stroke patients. In addition, computer-assisted management can help healthcare professionals to develop personalized treatment plans for TBI and stroke patients. This can include recommendations for the type of medical treatment and rehabilitation. In addition, computerized tools can be used to track a patient's progress and adjust treatment plans as needed.
The main objectives of this Special Issue are to provide computer-assisted diagnosis and management to improve the accuracy and efficiency of diagnosis and treatment for TBI and stroke patients, leading to better outcomes and quality of life.
The scope of the Special Issue includes, but is not be limited to, the following topics:
- CT and/or MRI scans using machine learning/artificial intelligence algorithms to predict the severity of the injury and the prognosis of TBI and stroke;
- Computer-aided detection of potential diagnostic biomarkers for TBI and stroke;
- Computerized clinical decision support program for diagnosis, medical treatment, and rehabilitation after TBI and stroke;
- The use of computer-assisted management in neurorehabilitation, including virtual reality, mixed reality, brain–machine interface, and robot-assisted devices, to improve mobility function, cognitive function, and swallowing function.
