Dear Colleagues,

Health care informatics aka medical informatics refers to application of information engineering and management to the field of health care covering essentially the management and use of patient health care information. By means of a multidisciplinary approach, it uses health information technology for the purpose of improving health care by resorting to
newer and higher quality opportunities. As per the United States National Library of Medicine (NLM) health informatics is defined as “an interdisciplinary study of the design, development, adoption and application of IT-based innovations in health care services delivery, management and planning. Essentially, it effects the optimization of the acquisition, storage, retrieval, and use of information in health and bio-medicine. Intelligent health care informatics augments the purview of the existing health care amenities by enveloping intelligent technologies to the information engineering aspects. Intelligent analysis of the information therein enhances the overall management as far as usage of resources is concerned.

We are coming up with an edited volume to report major emerging trends in technology that are used to support the current advancement of the medical image analysis with the help of artificial intelligence and computational intelligence. The book will elaborate on the fundamentals and advancement of the conventional approaches in the field of health care
management. The scope of this publication also opens an arena for the researcher to propose new approaches and reviewing state-of-the-art in the area of machine learning, computer vision, soft computing techniques, etc. and also to relate the same to their applications in medical image analysis. The motivation of this publication is not only to put forward new ideas in technology innovation but also to analyse the effect of the same in current context of medical healthcare.

We request you and your colleagues to contribute to this volume in either of the following broad areas.

1. CI/AI in Health Care Informatics
2. Big Data, IoT and Mobile based Health Care applications
3. Computer Aided Diagnosis for Health Care
4. Health Care Systems Uncertainty
5. Health Care Systems Awareness initiatives
6. Knowledge Management Issues in Health Care Systems
7. Exploratory Data Analysis in Health Care Systems
8. Return on Investment (RoI) in Health Care Systems
9. Content Based Image Retrieval Mechanisms in Health Care Systems
10.Deep Learning Applications in Health Care Systems
11.Smart Health Care: smart pills, intelligent drug delivery, Bio-MEMS drug delivery, Nano-bots
12. Social Orthotics
13. Wearable Health Care Systems
