Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled “Meningioma: Novel Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches”, will collate innovative research and comprehensive reviews focused on novel diagnostic and treatment modalities for meningiomas. In light of the accumulating evidence for molecular markers in the grading of meningiomas, PET DOTATATE for the detection of meningiomas, and targeted therapies for the treatment of meningiomas, this Special Issue will explore the advancements made in these areas.
We invite submissions that highlight novel imaging modalities, molecular alterations, and targeted therapies for meningiomas. Topics may include (but are not limited to) the application of PET DOTATATE for the identification of viable tumor and in radiation planning, molecular alterations that predict recurrence risk, and innovative therapies, including Lutetium-177 and targeted therapies. Contributions addressing challenges in identifying novel molecular markers to stratify risk are more than welcome. This Special Issue aims to provide a broad detailed overview of the recent advancements made and future directions in the diagnosis and treatment of meningiomas. This Special Issue will provide a guide for neuro-oncologists to support improved patient outcomes and deliver personalized medicine to their patients.
Dr. Carlen A Yuen

Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
