Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am excited to share my role as the Guest Editor for this Special Issue of Children, entitled “Advances in Theranostic Ultrasound”. Ultrasound has been a widely used diagnostic tool for children and serves as a convenient, cost-effective tool. Over the years, rapid advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) uses of ultrasound have emerged. As a result, ultrasound is not only a tool of convenience and low cost, but which can yield high resolution anatomic and functional insights into disease processes, and can modulate ultrasound pulses for therapy and drug delivery.
The goal of the Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current and emerging techniques in theranostic ultrasound. We invite investigators to contribute original research articles, as well as review articles that will further our understanding of the topic and help propel this field forward. As the title implies, new developments, and unconventional or inspirational contributions are also highly encouraged.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Misun Hwang
Guest Editor
