Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Deep learning (DL) has been widely applied to various fields, such as computer vision, natural language processing, speech recognition, and bioinformatics. In particular, DL has shown its great potential and success in medical and biomedical image processing, which aims to analyze and interpret images acquired from different modalities, such as X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, PET, and microscopy. DL can provide accurate and efficient solutions for various clinical applications, such as disease detection, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment planning, and evaluation. Some common tasks in medical and biomedical image processing are image classification, segmentation, registration, reconstruction, enhancement, and synthesis. DL can handle these tasks using different architectures and techniques, such as convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, generative adversarial networks, attention mechanisms, and transfer learning. However, challenges and open issues in applying DL to medical and biomedical image processing exist, such as data availability, quality, diversity, model interpretability and explainability, model robustness and generalization, model validation and evaluation, model bias, and ethical aspects. Therefore, more research and collaborations are needed to address these challenges and further advance the DL field in medical and biomedical image processing.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at mdpi.longhoe.net by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Diagnostics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
