Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pancreatic cancer remains a challenging malignancy with a poor prognosis, yet recent advances in imaging technologies and multimodal therapies are reshaping its clinical management. This Special Issue aims to compile the latest translational and clinical research that bridges scientific innovation with patient care, focusing on strategies to improve early detection, personalize treatment and, ultimately, enhance survival outcomes for patients.
We welcome original research articles and reviews on topics such as novel biomarkers for early diagnosis, advances in endoscopic and radiological imaging, precision oncology approaches including targeted therapies and immunomodulation and innovations in surgical and radiotherapeutic techniques.
This collection will provide timely resources for oncologists, surgeons, gastroenterologists and researchers dedicated to advancing the fight against pancreatic cancer.
