Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the continuous improvement of data acquisition means, symmetry and asymmetric analysis provide a basis for medical disease diagnosis. Recent advances in machine/deep learning and artificial intelligence have been catalyzing the development of modern computerized schemes for disease diagnosis, lesion detection in CT, ultrasound and MRI scans, etc. Significant asymmetry of a structure in medical images can usually indicate the presence of pathology. Since it is known that tumor immunohistochemical plays an indispensable role in medicine, integrating immunoassay knowledge into the computer system holds great promise for facilitating decision making and improving patient care. This Special Issue focuses on the study of medical imaging, biomedical techniques, etc., which are intended to explore the merits of methods and technologies showing asymmetry and/or symmetry in medical diagnosis images in the hope of better diagnosing symptoms, evaluating their significance, and identifying treatments for patients.
