Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Artificial intelligence (AI) and hyperspectral imaging (HSI) are two rapidly evolving technologies that are transforming medical imaging. This Special Issue, titled “Recent Advances in AI and Hyperspectral Techniques for Medical Imaging”, aims to present recent progress in the development and application of AI-based and HSI-based techniques for medical image analysis and clinical diagnosis.
We welcome contributions focusing on AI approaches such as deep learning for image reconstruction, enhancement, segmentation, and classification. Submissions related to hyperspectral imaging applications in tissue characterization, inflammation detection, and surgical guidance are also encouraged. While studies integrating both AI and HSI are of interest, independent advancements in either area are equally valued.
This Special Issue provides a platform for researchers, clinicians, and engineers to exchange insights and promote interdisciplinary innovations in intelligent and spectral medical imaging.
We look forward to your contributions.
Dr. Hsianmin Chen
Guest Editor
