Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Integrated sensor systems for medical applications refer to the application of multiple sensors, sometimes interconnected and coordinated, in order to gather and process data related to a patient's health or medical condition. These sensor systems play a crucial role in modern healthcare, enabling continuous monitoring, real-time data collection, and improved patient outcomes. They are designed to provide healthcare professionals with valuable information, enhance diagnostics, and enable personalized treatments.
This Special Issue therefore aims to collect original research and review articles that address recent advances, technologies, solutions, applications, and new challenges in the field of integrated sensor systems.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Biometric Sensors
- Activity Sensors
- Implantable Sensors
- Catheter sensor systems
- Surgical sensors
- Drug Delivery Systems
- Wearable Devices
- Remote Patient Monitoring
