Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to announce this Special Issue and invite submissions a manuscript focused on diagnostics, therapies, surgical approaches, and prognostic biomarkers in thyroid cancers. This Special Issue aims to cover the full spectrum of thyroid malignancies, including papillary, follicular, medullary, anaplastic, and poorly differentiated thyroid carcinomas.
Keeping abreast of the evolving landscape in thyroid oncology is critical. Emerging molecular markers, advanced imaging techniques, and novel approaches in patient stratification continue to enhance early detection and risk assessment across all thyroid cancer types. Likewise, progress in precision therapies and targeted treatments offers improved outcomes for patients with aggressive or treatment‑resistant disease. Innovators are also refining surgical strategies and integrating multimodal diagnostic–therapeutic frameworks for more personalized care.
This Special Issue aims to foster knowledge exchange that propels toward more precise, individualized, and effective management of thyroid cancer. Submissions will contribute to elevating clinical practice and patient outcomes in this dynamic and high‑impact field.
