Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The early detection of cancer is paramount in enabling improvements in patient survival and quality of life. Detection of cancer can be performed at may stages throughout the patient’s pathway, either in screening primary care populations for early detection, in symptomatic populations to triage from diseases that have similar symptoms, speeding up the interpretation of imaging, and identifying diseases that will respond to particular targeted treatments. To tackle this suite of early detection stages, there is a plethora of research across many disciplines being performed by interdisciplinary teams across the globe.

This Special edition Issue aims to highlight research, both basic and translational, that can enable the future of cancer detection through the release and development of novel technologies. Studies presenting novel technologies that enable new insights and applications of existing technologies in novel ways are welcomed for submission to this Special Issue. We welcome submissions on emerging technologies from genomics, metabolomics, and multi-/pan-omic approaches that can enable access to the full range of information available for the detection and monitoring of cancers in cells, tissues, and bodily fluids.
