Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in medical imaging modalities and predictive computer simulations have dramatically changed current treatment models towards facilitating individualized surgical planning. Advanced machine learning and deep learning algorithms have become influential in the medical fields, and it may be important to expedite the incorporation of these innovative technologies into surgical planning.
Therefore, this Special Issue on “Deep learning and Medical Innovation in Minimally Invasive Surgery” will focus on original research papers and comprehensive reviews of cutting-edge experimental methodologies for investigating machine or deep learning in minimally invasive surgery (including laparoscopic, endoscopic, and robotic surgery). Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to:
- Advanced machine learning techniques to aid in surgical planning, strategy, or perioperative management.
- Novel deep learning models for surgical features, imaging, and process recognition.
- The development of a deep learning algorithm for minimally invasive surgery.
- The in vivo quantification of the functional properties of innovative devices for minimally invasive surgery.
- The verification and validation of image-based deep learning algorithms in surgery.
- Advanced computational biomechanics for rapid, personalized surgical simulation and preoperative treatment planning.
We will consider contributions from all fields of research, as long as experiments and predictive simulations are the main driving force of the research.
Dr. Chien-Hung Liao

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. Bioengineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
