Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
An intelligent, networked medical device, known as the IoMT, connects people from all around the world. This enables the monitoring of a significant amount of medical data that were previously unknown. The demand for medical data, particularly visual depictions of health, such as signals and images, has recently increased. IoT applications, including as wearables, prescription tracking systems, remote patient monitoring, and networks for the medical supply chain, are widely used in the medical and healthcare sectors. IoMT aids physicians in providing more accurate diagnoses by maintaining a permanent record of a patient's current state of health. Patients can communicate with their doctors and nurses via smartphone applications that are Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled . They make it possible for medical personnel to treat many patients in a short period of time. Many studies have been conducted in the field of medical image and signal processing as a result of these types of issues. Medical imaging and signal processing have advanced significantly in recent years, but many questions still need to be resolved. Few IoMT apps have looked into the prospect of recording medical images as data and sending them through a wireless sensor network, while most IoMT apps concentrate on power efficiency (WSN). This is due to the fact that a WSN has a strict limit on how much bandwidth can be used at once. We are compiling this collection of current articles that examine the nature of the issue, and the various solutions that people have proposed over time. We want to use a WSN to send images of medical concerns instead of raw sensor data due to the persuasive power of visual proof. In situations such as medical data surveillance, when failing to do so could lead to a significant number of false positives, the significance of this cannot be overstated. To realise the full potential of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), research in image processing, wireless sensor networks (WSN), and other areas is required. We are particularly interested in the difficulties of image data transmission over the Internet of Things, hence we are looking for researchers who use IoMT in the field of medical imaging and are eager to address these problems. We hope to collect their creative solutions for overcoming the challenges of delivering visual data across the Internet of Things as part of this collection. This Special Issue will cover topics including medical imaging, the transmission of medical images and signals over a secure WSN, and the use of the Internet of Things to analyse medical activity in real-time.

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com 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. Bioengineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1700 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.
