Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gliomas remain one of the most complex and challenging conditions in neurosurgery, characterized by their aggressive behavior, intricate tumor biology, and variable clinical outcomes. Significant strides in surgical innovation, imaging technology, and molecular biology have dramatically transformed the therapeutic landscape for gliomas. This Special Issue is dedicated to exploring the forefront of neurosurgical interventions, precision diagnostics, and personalized medicine strategies that are reshaping glioma management. We welcome original research and insightful reviews that examine cutting-edge methodologies such as personalized precision surgery, advanced intraoperative imaging techniques, neuromonitoring advancements, intraoperative live histopathology and spectroscopy, minimally invasive approaches, stereotactic radiosurgery, and novel interdisciplinary treatment paradigms. Submissions addressing breakthroughs in biomarker discovery, targeted molecular therapies, and innovations that enhance patient safety and surgical precision are highly encouraged. Aligning with the vision and scope of Cancers, this Special Issue seeks to integrate translational research with clinical applications, offering a comprehensive and contemporary perspective on glioma treatment. We anticipate assembling a diverse collection of high-impact articles that collectively drive progress, inform clinical decision-making, and ultimately enhance patient care and survival outcomes in glioma management.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. 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 communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Cancers is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
