Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Deep learning is the prominent research direction for medical image analysis. The hierarchical nature of deep models learns the complex patterns of medical images, facilitating image-based diagnostics and prognosis. Different imaging modalities, including, but not limited to, RGB, CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound, PETS, EEG, and mammogram, are used for inferring valuable insights about the patient’s medical condition. In addition, multi-modality- and cross-modality-based learning algorithms are also explored where the models are learned using more than a single imaging modality.

In the last decade, many algorithms have been proposed, from cell segmentation to anomaly detection, with the aim of aiding radiologists and medical doctors. However, there are many limiting factors that create barriers to the ubiquitous application of such techniques in clinical practices. The availability of a large amount of high-quality labeled data, the real-time performance bottleneck, and the accuracy of algorithms themselves are some of the key challenges that researchers currently face.

Irrespective of the type of data modality, this Special Issue of Applied Sciences, titled “Advance in Deep Learning-Based Medical Image Analysis: 2nd Edition”, is dedicated to covering the recent advancements in this domain.

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.
