Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS) focuses on the latest advancements in Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs). As precision medicine continues to transform oncology and molecular pathology, theranostics and innovative therapeutic strategies have emerged as powerful tools in NET management.
The present Special Issue invites submissions of original research articles, reviews, and clinical studies that explore the following:
The mechanisms and insights considered to achieve a comprehensive understanding of tumor progression. The exploration of novel therapeutic and diagnostic approaches, including the utilization of radionuclide therapies, to identify biomarkers that can drive targeted treatment strategies. The analysis of advanced imaging modalities for diagnosis and treatment planning. The investigation of targeted therapies and the development of personalized treatment strategies to address an individual patient’s needs. The advancement of translational research to establish a connection between laboratory and clinical applications.
By contributing, an individual will become part of a global interdisciplinary effort to advance research in the field of NETs, thereby fostering new collaborations and shaping the future of patient care.
Dr. Behrooz H. Yousefi
Guest Editor
