Innovations in Thoracic Surgery and Disease Management: Integrating Genomics, Technology, and Multidisciplinary Care

Dear Colleagues,

Thoracic surgery and disease management are being transformed by advances in genomics, technology, and multidisciplinary care. This Special Issue will explore the breakthroughs that will improve patient outcomes across the spectrum of thoracic diseases.

From lung cancer to complex airway disorders, thoracic diseases require precision and adaptability. Genomic integration enables personalized therapies through molecular profiling and targeted interventions, transforming treatment selection and prognostication. Technological innovations, including robotic surgery, advanced imaging modalities, and artificial intelligence applications, enhance precision while minimizing invasiveness. Complementing these tools, collaboration among surgeons, oncologists, radiologists, and pulmonologists ensures holistic patient-centered care.

We invite original research, reviews, and case studies that demonstrate the clinical impact of these integrative approaches. Join us in shaping a future where innovation elevates excellence in thoracic care.
