Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Breast cancer remains one of the most prevalent and complex malignancies worldwide, demanding continuous advancements in both diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to improve patient outcomes. Recent breakthroughs in precision medicine, minimally invasive surgical techniques, targeted therapies, and innovative imaging modalities are reshaping the clinical management of breast cancer, allowing for more accurate detection, personalized treatment plans, and enhanced survivorship.

This Special Issue will showcase the latest research and clinical innovations in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, covering topics such as molecular and genetic profiling, artificial intelligence in imaging, novel systemic and immunotherapies, advancements in breast-conserving surgery, and strategies to mitigate treatment-related side effects. By bringing together leading experts and cutting-edge studies, this collection will provide a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of breast cancer care, ultimately guiding future research and improving the quality of life for patients worldwide.
