Summary

The study provides a bibliometric analysis of medical hyperspectral imaging research, reviewing over 2,274 articles from 73 countries using visualization tools like VOSviewer and CiteSpace. Researchers identified key research trends, influential institutions, and emerging topics in this field, which applies imaging technology to support medical diagnostics and clinical applications.

Body Systems

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a promising technology that can provide valuable support for the advancement of the medical field. Bibliometrics can analyze a vast number of publications on both macroscopic and microscopic levels, providing scholars with essential foundations to shape future directions. The purpose of this study is to comprehensively review the existing literature on medical hyperspectral imaging (MHSI). Based on the Web of Science (WOS) database, this study systematically combs through literature using bibliometric methods and visualization software such as VOSviewer and CiteSpace to draw scientific conclusions. The analysis yielded 2,274 articles from 73 countries/regions, involving 7,401 authors, 2,037 institutions, 1,038 journals/conferences, and a total of 7,522 keywords. The field of MHSI is currently in a positive stage of development and has conducted extensive research worldwide. This research encompasses not only HSI technology but also its application to diverse medical research subjects, such as skin, cancer, tumors, etc., covering a wide range of hardware constructions and software algorithms. In addition to advancements in hardware, the future should focus on the development of algorithm standards for specific medical research targets and cultivate medical professionals of managing vast amounts of technical information.
