Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Since the discovery of X-rays in 1895, biomedical imaging has been widely developed and applied for accurate diagnosis and potential treatment plans. Besides the most common medical-imaging modalities (X-ray radiography, ultrasonography, X-ray computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission computed tomography (PET), etc.), research modalities include various optical-imaging techniques (confocal, multiphoton, total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM), super-resolution fluorescence microscopy), electron microscopy, mass spectrometry imaging, bioluminescence, variations of endoscopy, optical coherence tomography (OCT), optoacoustic imaging, etc.
Most of these techniques work based on either radiography or radiology, suitable for distinct biomedical areas: imaging molecular and cellular biomarkers, single-cell imaging, and imaging therapeutics. As novel imaging devices, image-processing algorithms, and probes/labels continually emerge, together these contribute to the development of biomedical imaging.
This Special Issue will publish high-quality, original research papers in the overlapping fields of:
- X-ray radiography / X-ray computed tomography;
- Ultrasound imaging;
- Magnetic resonance imaging;
- Positron emission tomography/Single-photon emission tomography;
- Fluorescence imaging;
- Bioluminescence imaging;
- Photoacoustic imaging;
- Spectral imaging;
- Phase imaging.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
