Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Light-based technologies today have grown tremendously and have contributed to solving many daily life problems in society. In particular, novel concepts and techniques have been elaborated to enhance sensing and imaging capabilities for abnormalities in human tissues. Better insight into light–tissue interactions supported with recent advancements in light sources and other related optical technologies will increase better sensitivity and specificity in early detection of many abnormalities. The use of Artificial Intelligence (e.g., Deep Learning) will also further improve detection accuracy. These would revolutionize many diagnostics and therapeutic aspects of future healthcare.
This Special Issue is focused on recent advances in light-based technologies for biomedical sensing and imaging, and to leverage artificial intelligence in this application. We strongly encourage the submission of papers focusing on the keywords below. However, works on related topics will also be considered.

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. Photonics 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 2400 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.
