Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming medical practice through innovative applications that enhance the quality, efficiency, and personalization of healthcare. This Special Issue explores AI’s role across diverse areas, advancing our understanding of how AI-driven methods can support healthcare professionals and improve patient outcomes. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Disease Detection and Diagnosis: leveraging AI for the early and precise identification of diseases, aiding clinicians in diagnosing complex conditions and improving clinical decision making.
- Personalized Treatment: utilizing AI to customize treatment plans that align with individual patient profiles, leading to more effective, targeted therapies.
- Medical Imaging: enhancing diagnostic imaging interpretation through machine learning and deep learning algorithms, allowing for quicker, more accurate analyses of medical images.
- Clinical Trial Efficiency: streamlining clinical trial processes by applying AI to participant selection, data management, and real-time monitoring, thereby accelerating drug development and improving trial outcomes.
- Accelerated Drug Development: incorporating AI to identify drug candidates, predict outcomes, and optimize the discovery process, shortening the time to bring new treatments to patients.
We welcome original research, reviews, and case studies that demonstrate AI’s capabilities and the latest advancements in these areas.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in BioMedInformatics, Joint Special Issue in Diagnostics, or Joint Special Issue in Life.
