Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recent significant advances in biomedical imaging have led to not only significantly increased visual fidelity, but also new insights and understanding into diseases that were previously not possible to capture for supporting improved diagnostics and clinical decision support. In parallel, significant advances have been made in image analysis and artificial intelligence techniques for extracting critical visual information from biomedical imaging data, and leveraging this extracted information for predicting the presence of disease as well as the severity of disease to support clinical diagnosis and decision-making processes. The goal of this Special Issue is to promote recent technical advances in all relevant aspects, ranging from improved biomedical imaging systems for diagnosis to applications and techniques for image analysis and artificial intelligence algorithms for diagnostic prediction. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Biomedical imaging systems and techniques for diagnosis purposes;
  • Machine learning and AI algorithms for the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases;
  • Image analysis algorithms (segmentation, region-of-interest detection, feature extraction, etc.) for supporting the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases;
  • Intelligent systems for vision- and image-based biomedical diagnostics;
  • Multimodal fusion methods for combining information from different imaging systems and/or a mix of imaging and clinical metadata.

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. 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
