Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a cornerstone of modern clinical diagnosis, offering unparalleled anatomical and functional detail in a non-invasive and radiation-free manner. This Special Issue explores the evolving role of MRI across a wide range of medical disciplines, with a focus on its most recent clinical applications.
We spotlight key technological advancements—including high-field MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), perfusion MRI (pMRI), and AI-enhanced image analysis—that are reshaping diagnostic strategies and improving patient care. The contributions featured in this Special Issue also address current diagnostic protocols, real-world clinical applications, and the ongoing challenges in integrating cutting-edge MRI techniques into standard medical practice.
By bringing together expert perspectives and the latest research, this Special Issue highlights the essential role of MRI in precision medicine and its growing importance in early diagnosis, disease monitoring, and therapeutic planning.
