Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gastric cancer remains a particularly lethal disease, having the fourth highest fatality rate and the fifth highest incidence rate worldwide, with half of all cases occurring in East Asian countries. This malignancy shows its symptoms in advanced stages. Therefore, one of the challenging issues regarding gastric cancer is the screening and diagnosis of these advanced stages, which causes a weak prognosis in patients with gastric malignancies. Research into various methods of early screening and diagnosis of gastric cancer, as well as new treatment options, is important for improving the prognosis. A better understanding of the different aspects of this disease could save millions of lives worldwide.
Given the importance of the early diagnosis and treatment of gastric malignancies, this Special Issue aims to bring together research that helps us to understand the innovations in screening, diagnosis, and treatment of gastric cancer. This has an important role in the development of gastric cancer. Original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) all the aforementioned topics.
