Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the current era of rapid technological development, biological tissue detection has become an important research direction in the fields of medicine and biology. To achieve more accurate and efficient biological tissue detection, various advanced technologies and methods are constantly emerging. Photonic crystal sensors, with their unique optical properties, show great potential in biological tissue detection. They can sensitively perceive subtle changes in biological tissues through the modulation and reflection of light. At the same time, the continuous innovation of sensor methods also provides more possibilities for biological tissue detection. From traditional electrical detection to emerging optical, acoustic, and other detection means, each method is striving to improve the sensitivity and specificity of detection. Electromagnetic wave propagation also plays a key role in biological tissue detection. Understanding the propagation laws of electromagnetic waves in biological tissues can help optimize the transmission and reception of detection signals and improve the accuracy of detection. The development of antenna radiation technology provides support for the effective transmission and reception of electromagnetic waves. Carefully designed antennas can enhance the radiation efficiency of electromagnetic waves and improve the communication quality between the sensor and the detected object.
The focus of this Special Issue is to illustrate that the field of biological tissue detection is moving in a more advanced and reliable direction under the synergy of multiple aspects such as photonic crystal sensors, sensor methods, electromagnetic wave propagation, and antenna radiation, bringing more benefits to human health and biological science research.

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. 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.
