Upcoming issues in 2016 – Call for papers

Abstract

With the publication of the first issue of the Photonics & Lasers in Medicine’s fifth volume, the editors-inchief would like to express their thanks to all who have contributed to the journal, in particular the authors, issue editors, editorial board members and reviewers. Furthermore we are very grateful to those who have supported us in our work and encouraged us in our quest to create an international forum for the publication of latest research in the field of laser medicine and biophotonics. On this occasion, we would like to renew our invitation for contributed manuscript submissions in addition to the special topics listed hereinafter. Photonics & Lasers in Medicine has a very broad and comprehensive scope. The thematic spectrum ranges from laser optical diagnostics to thermal, non-linear therapeutic procedures and applications, optical methods including light emitting diodes (LEDs), intense pulsed light (IPL), and organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), and last, but by no means least, clinical basic research for both human and veterinary medicine. Photonics & Lasers in Medicine gives authors the opportunity to publish late stage pre-clinical studies, and perhaps more importantly, those in-vitro, ex-vivo and early-stage clinical studies which often do not find a place in clinical journals or in technologically-oriented laser/ biophotonics journals, but offer the prospect of future translation in practice.
