Radiological Imaging Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Medical imaging allows us to evaluate different pathologies for diagnostic and treatment purposes; consequently, it plays an important role in initiatives to improve public (or private) health.

The use of X-ray images enables the detection, confirmation, and correct assessment and documentation of many diseases and pathologies, as well as the evaluation of responses to treatment. In practice, effective decisions depend on correct diagnoses.

We present this Special Issue, which welcomes contributions concerning different computer science techniques (segmentation, graph theory, machine learning, etc.) applied to new or improved measurement and recording methods (e.g., automated spinal curvature estimation). The scope of this Special Issue also encompasses new methods to improve the quality of X-ray images as well as different applications aiming to enhance the existing tools and procedures in healthcare.
