Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In the last decade, radiologists and intensive care physicians have collaborated to improve fast imaging acquisition, early diagnosis, and standardized imaging findings in order to provide several hints that may aid clinicians in interpreting imaging findings and easily managing patients. Given the constraints related to time and patients with limited mobility, bedside radiologic evaluation in intensive care often cannot be as comprehensive and optimal as in the radiology department. However, diagnostic imaging techniques and their interpretation (including ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance) have become essential in guiding intensive care daily practice and patient management. In addition, the ability to interpret critical care images is becoming even more essential to help clinicians in handling emergency situations and making confident decisions.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to highlight novelties in diagnostic medical imaging, including the research that is being carried out to improve radiological assessment and diagnostic approaches in critical care medicine.

Dr. Denise Battaglini
