Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
By taking the advantages of optical contrast and ultrasonic penetration depth, photoacoustic imaging and sensing (PAIS) has been successfully applied in biomedical research and preclinical practice, which provides non-invasive, label-free and multiscale inspection alternatives to fill the gaps left by other imaging and sensing modalities. Recently, many efforts have been made to overcome some long-existing challenges and limitations in PAIS and thus expanded the relative applications, including but not limited to, high-speed imaging/sensing strategies, high-quality reconstruction algorithms, high-sensitivity detection sensors, low-cost imaging/sensing devices, high-efficiency photoacoustic probes, etc.
The Special Issue is focused on highlighting the recent advances in PAIS technologies and applications.

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.
