Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Biomedical Imaging

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are inviting submissions for an upcoming Topical Collection on AI in biomedical imaging.

Thanks to recent advancements in AI, the field of medical imaging has also developed in many innovative ways. Numerous AI-based tools have been developed to automate medical image analysis and improve automated image interpretation. In particular, deep learning approaches have demonstrated exceptional performance in the screening and diagnosis of many diseases. This field is also becoming increasingly accessible to researchers in medicine and biology who have not traditionally been machine learning practitioners due to the limited availability of software libraries. A further challenge regarding AI‐driven solutions is the development of tools for a personalized disease assessment through deep learning models by taking advantage of their ability to learn patterns and relationships in data and utilize massive volumes of medical images.

The aim of this Topical Collection is to capture recent research and seek contributions of high-quality papers focusing on medical image processing and analysis. Of particular interest are submissions regarding AI-driven computer-aided diagnosis and improvement of automated image interpretation. However, contributions concerning other aspects of medical image processing and analysis (including, but not limited to, image quality improvement, image restoration, image segmentation, image registration and radiomics analysis) are also welcomed.

Dr. Cristiana Corsi
Collection Editor

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.
