Biomedical Image Processing and Sensing Application

Dear Colleagues,

Monitoring technologies for human health have recently experienced a rapid and exciting expansion. New methods for detecting, monitoring, and tracing health-related biomarkers in clinical, pre-clinical, and home settings have been made possible by technological advances in hardware and software systems. This technological shift has resulted in enhanced healthcare efficacy, including earlier disease detection, novel treatment methods, and quantitative self-monitoring.

The recent increase in computational power and sensors has enabled the development of new sensing technologies as well as new analysis techniques that utilize well-established modalities. For instance, advancements in machine learning and image processing techniques have become pervasive across various aspects of biomedical imaging and sensing for the identification of intricate patterns. Similarly, hardware advancements have facilitated the development of health monitoring technologies in challenging environments, such as ambulatory monitoring. To bring together various aspects of health monitoring, authors are invited to submit papers describing novel imaging and/or sensing methods with pre-clinical/clinical applications to this Special Issue.  The core themes of this topic include, but are not limited to:

• Advances in image analysis for disease detection and/or monitoring, including, but not limited to, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound, etc.
• Machine learning methods for biomedical image and signal analysis.
• Advances in multimodal systems for diagnosis, treatment, and/or prevention.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
