Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chronic pain remains a major challenge in modern medicine, requiring an integrated and multidisciplinary approach. This Special Issue will explore advances in clinical management strategies for chronic pain, including pharmacologic treatments, interventional procedures, psychological approaches, spinal cord stimulation, and regenerative medicine. Emphasis will be placed on integrating diagnostic reasoning and clinical pathways. Submissions are welcome from across specialties such as anesthesiology, neurology, physical medicine, rehabilitation, and psychology. We aim to enable a comprehensive understanding of how modern tools and interdisciplinary collaboration can improve outcomes for patients with chronic pain.
This Special Issue will provide a communication platform for research on chronic pain. We encourage the submission of papers describing related, original research articles and reviews.
