This volume contains the accepted papers of the ICIMTH (International Conference on Informatics, Management, and Technology in Healthcare) for the year 2025 and presents to the community of Biomedical and Health Informatics the scientific outcomes of the ICIMTH 2025 Conference, held in Athens, Greece, from 4-6 July 2025.
The ICIMTH 2025 Conference is the 23rd annual conference in this series of scientific events, which gathers scientists from all continents working in the field of biomedical and health informatics. The conference is held as a live event, and virtual sessions by means of teleconferencing have deliberately not been offered, to encourage all presenters to be at the venue.
The field of biomedical and health informatics is studied from a very broad perspective at this conference, with participants presenting their research and application outcomes of informatics from cells to populations, including several technologies such as imaging, sensors, biomedical equipment and management and organisational aspects, including legal and social issues. Essentially, artificial intelligence, data science, informatics, and technology inspire health professionals and informaticians to improve healthcare for the benefit of patients. As expected, a significant number of papers submitted to the conference are still related to public health issues. This year, however, we again saw an increased influx of submissions in artificial intelligence studies and applications in healthcare, and we wanted this to be reflected in the theme of the conference and in the title of the proceedings.
The organisers would like to thank all participants in this conference. Of the 167 submissions, 111 full papers and 14 short communications papers were accepted for publication. Since last year we have not opened a call for posters. An invited panel will provide an overview of historical perspectives of the evolution of artificial intelligence in healthcare. The panellists are Professor Reinold Haux, the former president of IAHSI and IMIA; Professor George Mihalas, the former president of EFMI; Professor Casimir Kulikowski of Rutgers University; and Professor Arie Hasman, the SPC chair. The keynote speaker, Professor Theodoros N. Arvanitis from the University of Birmingham, UK, will provide a state-of-the-art presentation on digital health.
It should be noted that the proceedings, entitled Global Healthcare Transformation in the Era of Artificial Intelligence and Informatics, will be published as an open access publication, with the advantages of indexing and citation in the biggest scientific literature databases, such as PubMed/Medline and Scopus, enabled by the submission of the volume by IOS Press for indexing consideration as part of the series Studies in Health Technology and Informatics (HTI). The expected date of publication is the date of the conference.
The Editors would like to thank the members of the Scientific Programme Committee, the Organising Committee, and all reviewers for their professional, thorough, and objective refereeing of the scientific work, which contributed to the achievement of a high-quality publication for a successful scientific event.
