Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In medicine, the early detection of pathologies compromising public health is becoming increasingly important. Medical imaging and new imaging techniques play a central role in disease prediction and prevention. The recent literature has described both advances in the identification of pathologies in medicine and dentistry using MRI, and new techniques for the detection of initial disease-predisposing conditions. In addition to the preventive aspect, precise imaging is also relevant for the planning of surgical interventions. Along with CT, cone beam CT and PET/CT, high-resolution MRI is gaining increasing interest not only in research but also in clinical implementation.
Papers addressing the early detection of medical and dental pathologies as well as image-based therapy planning in surgery are welcome in this Special Issue. The focus should be on the clinical and practical aspects of medical imaging.
