Advancements in Artificial Intelligence for Medical Images

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce a call for papers for a Special Issue of Journal of Imaging, dedicated to “Advancements in Artificial Intelligence for Medical Images”. This Special Issue aims to explore cutting-edge research and innovative applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of medical imaging.

Scope and Topics:

The integration of AI into medical imaging is revolutionizing healthcare, offering unprecedented improvements in diagnoses, treatment planning, and patient outcomes. This Special Issue invites original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and insightful case studies that focus on, but are not limited to, the following topics:

• Deep Learning for Medical Imaging: Novel architectures, training techniques, and applications of deep learning models in image analysis, segmentation, and classification.
• Imaging Biomarkers: AI-driven extraction and the analysis of quantitative features from medical images for personalized medicine.
• Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD): The development and validation of CAD systems that assist clinicians in interpreting medical images.
• Image Reconstruction and Enhancement: AI techniques for improving image quality, resolution, and reducing artifacts in medical imaging modalities.
• Multimodal Imaging and Data Integration: AI methods for combining information from different imaging modalities (e.g., MRI, CT, PET) and integrating with other clinical data.
• Ethics and Explainability in AI: Addressing ethical considerations, bias, and the development of interpretable AI models for medical imaging.
• AI in Screening and Early Detection: AI applications in the early detection and screening of diseases using medical images.
• Real-time and edge AI (AI on the edge) Applications: Implementing AI for real-time image analysis and decision support in clinical settings, including edge computing solutions.
• Regulatory and Clinical Adoption: Challenges and strategies for the regulatory approval, clinical validation, and adoption of AI tools in healthcare systems.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Imaging is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
