Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid evolution of digital radiology and image analysis is transforming medical diagnostics, being primarily driven by cutting-edge sensing technologies. Advanced sensors, including high-resolution detectors, multispectral imaging systems, and AI-integrated sensor arrays, are enhancing the precision, speed, and accessibility of radiological imaging. These innovations enable the earlier detection of diseases, improved image quality, and reduced radiation exposure, addressing challenges in traditional imaging modalities. This Special Issue of Sensors aims to showcase the latest advancements in sensing technologies that are redefining digital radiology and image analysis. We invite contributions on novel sensor designs, AI-driven image processing, real-time imaging systems, and their clinical applications. Topics include, but are not limited to, low-dose imaging sensors, photon-counting detectors, wearable radiological sensors, and machine learning for automated image analysis. By highlighting interdisciplinary research, this Special Issue seeks to bridge sensor technology with clinical radiology, fostering innovations that improve patient outcomes and diagnostic workflows.

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.
