Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Clinical imaging aims at providing the best possible patient care and is playing an increasingly important role in various areas, including disease prevention, diagnosis, prognosis assessment, and therapeutic decision-making. Accordingly, there is an increasing demand for all imaging modalities.
In contrast to other clinical areas, oncologic imaging is typically quite extensive and thus accounts for a significant portion of the radiological workload. Furthermore, it is necessary to access examinations from different sources over longer time intervals, and this further increases the complexity of interpretation and reporting.
On the other hand, there is a shortage of resources and a need for optimal allocation from an economic and also an ecological point of view.
The aim of this Special Issue is to present recent developments and novel approaches to improve clinical imaging covering insights from recent technical developments to imaging management and seamless integration in patient care.
