Manuscript Topics
Recent advances in computer technology has generated many medical biophysics applications from theory to clinical practice. Novel and timely internet-based technologies such as big data analytics, cloud/parallel computing, and artificial intelligence (AI) have been implemented in biophysical studies in cancer therapy, medical imaging and drug delivery. It includes computer simulation of radiation dosimetry in radiotherapy, optimizing characteristics of nanomaterial used as contrast agent, dose enhancer and drug delivery vehicle in theranostics. Moreover, it includes evaluating and predicting therapeutic outcome based on big data and machine learning, and software application such as AI-assisted chatbot for healthcare communication in cancer therapy.
In this special issue, we invite authors to submit their original works as research manuscript, topical review or scientific note, on medical biophysics using advanced computer methods. Potential topics include simulation and modeling of physical and chemical interaction between molecules and particles in a cell, preclinical or clinical environment; design and synthesis of contrast agent for medical imaging; design of a drug delivery system for cancer therapy; computer model on radiomics in medical imaging; and other theoretical and experimental studies on medical biophysics. Through this special issue, we would like to explore how recent development of computer technology can benefit the advances of medical biophysics.
