Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gastrointestinal disorders demand precise and minimally invasive diagnostic approaches to optimize patient outcomes. This Special Issue highlights cutting-edge advancements in clinical and interventional gastroenterology, focusing on novel diagnostic modalities such as AI-enhanced endoscopy, advanced imaging techniques (e.g., confocal laser endomicroscopy, capsule endoscopy), and biomarker discovery. Key themes include the early detection of neoplastic and inflammatory conditions, functional GI diagnostics, and the integration of molecular profiling into routine practice. By bridging translational research and clinical application, this Special Issue aims to refine diagnostic accuracy, reduce invasiveness, and personalize patient assessment in gastroenterology.
