Medical Image Classification

Dear Colleagues,

Given the plethora of new instruments and sensors (some now attached to cell phones), medical data are accumulating at an unprecedented rate, and there is no reason to believe that the complexity and the amount of data will do anything other than continue to snowball. More than ever, machine learning algorithms are needed to realize the potential for medical science that is embedded in this avalanche of data.

The purpose of this TC is to collect studies representing the state-of-the-art in medical image classification from many different modalities: computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), functional MRI (fMRI), electroencephalography (EEG), etc. Multimodal systems are especially, though not exclusively, solicited.

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.
