Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are excited to announce a Special Issue focused on the "Prevention and Quality of Life of Lung Cancer". As professionals dedicated to enhancing the well-being and health outcomes of our patients, we recognize the pivotal role of prevention strategies and the profound impact of interventions that seek to improve the quality of life of individuals diagnosed with lung cancer.

This Special Issue aims to encompass a broad spectrum of topics related to the prevention of lung cancer and improving the quality of life of those affected by it. We welcome original research, review articles, clinical trials, and perspectives on topics including, but not limited to, the following:

- Novel preventive strategies and early detection techniques.

- Behavioral interventions, including smoking cessation and lifestyle modifications.

- The psychosocial dynamics of living with lung cancer.

- Palliative care approaches for advanced-stage lung cancer.

- The role of rehabilitation and exercise in enhancing quality of life.

- Patient-reported outcomes and their implications for care.

By sharing your insights, research, and experiences, you will be contributing to a comprehensive resource that aims to inform and shape best practices, inspire future research, and, most importantly, bring about meaningful change in the lives of patients. Your work will reach a vast audience of peers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers, amplifying its impact.

We urge you to seize this opportunity to showcase your expertise and contribute to a topic of profound importance. Together, let us advance the discourse on lung cancer prevention and enhance the quality of life of those affected by this formidable disease.

We are looking forward to your valuable contributions!
