Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Medical imaging is a cornerstone of modern medicine, allowing physicians to peer inside the human body with unprecedented clarity. However, the sheer volume and complexity of medical image data have posed challenges that have often necessitated time-consuming and subjective human interpretation. Machine learning, which provides the ability to sift through vast datasets, identify patterns, and make predictions with remarkable accuracy, represents a paradigm shift with the potential to revolutionize medical practice, enabling earlier and more precise diagnoses, personalized treatment plans, and enhanced patient care.
This Special Issue addresses all aspects relevant to the application of machine learning in medical imaging. From the development of novel machine learning algorithms for medical image acquisition, processing, and analysis (e.g., image segmentation, registration, disease classification, and predictive modeling) to the ethical and regulatory considerations that accompany the adoption of these algorithms, this Special Issue aims to discuss the current state-of-the-art technologies that pertain to this dynamic field, as well as the field’s emerging trends and potential future research directions. We invite researchers to contribute to this Special Issue with original research articles and review articles that focus on machine learning in medical imaging.
