Abstract

Introduction by the Advisory Editor-in-ChiefAdvanced digital imaging technology and multimedia presentation methods have been widely used in biomedical imaging research and clinical practice. As examples, CT, MRI and other medical images can be displayed in 3D rendered formats to reveal fine details from different angles and to demonstrate internal structures.

Journal of X-ray Science and Technology (XST) is happy to introduce our first special issue in Multimedia Presentation Assisted Clinical Diagnosis, Prognosis and Treatment.
