Pathology and Diagnostic Issues in Central Nervous System Tumors
This special issue belongs to the section “Pathology and Molecular Diagnostics“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
After the publication of the 5th WHO Classification of CNS Tumors, it became clear that the application of molecular biology techniques in pathologists’ diagnostic practice is becoming increasingly fundamental. However, along with the beneficial influence of molecular advances, there are many diagnostic issues regarding the application of molecular tests, the interpretation of results in particular cases, and the classification of proposed new entities.
This Research Topic aims to share new insights regarding pathology and diagnostic issues in CNS tumors. The goal is to discuss new perspectives in terms of classification, diagnosis, prognosis, and possible therapeutic perspectives in CNS tumors.
