Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advancements in prenatal diagnosis and maternal–fetal medicine have significantly transformed obstetric care, enabling earlier detection of fetal anomalies, improving maternal health outcomes, and fostering personalized approaches to pregnancy management. The integration of cutting-edge technologies and interdisciplinary research has paved the way for innovative diagnostic tools and therapeutic interventions, enhancing the ability to tailor medical care to the unique needs of each mother and fetus. This rapidly evolving field is crucial for optimizing perinatal outcomes and ensuring the health and well-being of both mothers and their babies.
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to the Special Issue titled “Advances in Prenatal Diagnosis and Maternal Fetal Medicine” in the Journal of Personalized Medicine. This Special Issue aims to compile a comprehensive collection of the latest research and developments in prenatal diagnosis and maternal–fetal medicine, aligning with the journal’s commitment to personalized healthcare. By focusing on this specialized area, we seek to highlight innovative approaches and foster the dissemination of knowledge that can drive personalized interventions and improve clinical practices in maternal and fetal health.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and review papers are welcome. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Genetic and genomic screening techniques;
- Fetal imaging and diagnostic technologies;
- Personalized therapeutic interventions in fetal therapy;
- Maternal health monitoring and management strategies;
- Innovations in obstetric care and perinatal medicine;
- Ethical considerations in prenatal diagnostics;
- Biomarkers for pregnancy complications;
- Advances in non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT);
- Integration of artificial intelligence in maternal–fetal medicine;
- Long-term outcomes of personalized prenatal care.
We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions and collaborating to advance the field of prenatal diagnosis and maternal–fetal medicine through this Special Issue.
