Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of thyroid imaging is being continuously innovated, and brand-new knowledge and cutting-edge clinical techniques for diagnosis have been reported. Thyroid imaging using a radionuclide was a pioneer of functional imaging, and radioiodine was used for the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid disease. Due to the recent technical advancement of SPECT, PET, MRI and ultrasonography, diverse information about the disease can be obtained. In thyroid cancer, a different tracer provides a different piece of valuable information, and this can be translated for therapeutic approaches. In addition, recent reports showed the application of artificial intelligence in thyroid imaging.
In this Special Issue, new, original, advanced and innovative studies on diagnostic techniques including functional imaging, structural imaging and artificial intelligence will be considered for publication. Your valuable studies in all areas of thyroid imaging will be welcomed. This Special Issue aims to support researchers who are investigating the diseases of the thyroid gland for better clinical diagnosis and new methods, resulting in the advancement of diagnostics.
