Imaging Diagnosis for Melanoma
This special issue belongs to the section “Medical Imaging and Theranostics“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the new era of precision medicine in oncology, medical imaging is pivotal for the management of patients with melanoma. Imaging guides a wide range of indications ranging from early detection of malignant lesions to response assessment in advanced metastatic disease. This Research Topic aims to share disruptive concepts in the field of imaging-guided precision medicine in patients with cutaneous, mucous or uveal melanoma. The goal is to discuss new concepts and discoveries in the field of quantitative imaging biomarkers derived from a quantitative analysis of data contained in medical images such as guiding the initial treatment decision, assessing tumor sensitivity to treatments, and managing patients in the new era of COVID-19.
