Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diagnostic imaging that visualizes the functions of bones and joints are highly anticipated in daily clinical practice. The diagnostic accuracy of musculoskeletal diseases has improved with the development of new imaging equipment, image processing technologies, and image analysis methods. Recently, various image analysis techniques, such as AI diagnosis, 2D-3D reconstruction, functional imaging, and fusion imaging have also been developed.
The first Special Issue entitled "Recent Advances in Bone and Joint Imaging" was so well received that it was decided to call for papers for the second edition. The purpose of this Special Issue, like the first, is to discuss the diagnosis and treatment of various musculoskeletal disorders using the latest bone-joint imaging technologies. This Special Issue will focus on current topics related to advances in bone and joint imaging, including computer-aided assessment, artificial intelligence, morphological analysis, functional imaging, and combined modalities.
