Special Journal Issue on Microwave, Millimeter and Terahertz Techniques in Medical, Biological, and Biomedical Engineering

The ASME Journal of Engineering and Science in Medical Diagnostics and Therapy is currently accepting manuscripts for a special issue focusing on the topic “Microwave, Millimeter and Terahertz Techniques in Medical, Biological, and Biomedical Engineering.” Authors who are interested in having their manuscripts included in the special issue, to be published in August 2022, should submit their manuscripts by March 1, 2022.
 
This special issue aims to present the recent development of advanced electromagnetics, microwave, millimeter/terahertz techniques for medical, biological, and biomedical applications. Submissions are encouraged of original and high-quality review papers with scopes in state-of-the-art research related to electromagnetic theory, techniques, and integration for medical and biological applications, including but not limited to RF and microwave diagnostic and therapeutic systems; electromagnetic imaging; radiometry and thermography; computational methods for bio-electromagnetics; implantable and wearable diagnostic and therapeutic systems; radar for remote or noninvasive monitoring and tracking; electromagnetic sensors and devices or biomedical applications. The articles will include data from experiments, computational simulations, and/or models. 
 
Manuscripts to be included in the special issue are limited to these topic areas:

• Sources: Microwave devices, vacuum tube-based sources, free-electron lasers, synchrotrons, gas lasers, quantum cascade lasers
• Detectors: THz detectors, microwave antenna and antenna arrays, electromagnetic sensors, radar for remote or noninvasive monitoring and tracking
• Devices: Modulators, reflectors, filters, waveguides, metamaterial-based devices, RF ablation therapeutic devices and instruments
• Systems: Emitter-receiver systems, imaging systems, RF and microwave integrated circuits, diagnostic and therapeutic systems, implantable and wearable diagnostic and therapeutic systems
• Spectroscopy: Interaction between THz waves and all states of matter including THz spectroscopy on solids, liquids, gases, and plasmas
• Applications: Human physiological sensing and biomedical imaging, biological analyses, healthcare systems, noninvasive monitoring and tracking, noninvasive medical diagnostic, biomedical sensing, RF ablation therapeutics, pharmaceutical industry
• Computational methods for bioelectromagnetics

 
Manuscripts should be submitted electronically to the journal by March 1, 2022, via Journals Connect at journaltool.asme.org. Authors who have an account should log in and select “Submit Paper” at the bottom of the page. Authors without an account should select “Submissions” and follow the steps. At the Paper Submittal page, authors should select “ASME Journal of Engineering and Science in Medical Diagnostics and Therapy” and then select the special issue “Microwave, Millimeter and Terahertz Techniques in Medical, Biological, and Biomedical Engineering.” Papers received after the deadline or papers not selected for inclusion in the special issue may be accepted for publication in a regular issue.
 
The guest editors for the special issue are Lulu Wang, professor, Shenzhen Technology University, China, wanglulu@sztu.edu.cn; Alexei Kuleshov, professor, O. Ya. Usikov Institute for Radiophysics and Electronics of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Ukraine, KuleshovAN@nas.gov.ua; and Svilen Sabchevski, professor, Institute of Electronics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Bulgaria, sabch@ie.bas.bg.
