Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Imaging and interventional radiology have taken on an increasingly critical role in oncology in recent years, with advances in diagnostic imaging, image-guided biopsies, and minimally invasive therapeutic procedures transforming the way cancer is detected, staged, and treated.
This Special Issue of Medicina aims to highlight the latest developments and innovations in cancer imaging and interventional radiology, including their impact on early diagnosis, personalized treatment planning, and improved patient outcomes.
We welcome submissions that explore a broad spectrum of topics, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Novel imaging techniques in cancer detection and staging;
- Image-guided biopsies and minimally invasive oncologic interventions;
- Functional and molecular imaging in oncology;
- The role of radiology in multidisciplinary cancer care;
- Technological advances in oncologic imaging;
- Radiologic–pathologic correlation in tumor diagnosis;
- Interventional radiology in palliative cancer care.
We welcome original research, clinical studies, retrospective and prospective analyses, literature reviews, and opinion papers, and both clinical and experimental contributions are encouraged.
The goal of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date resource for clinicians, researchers, and radiologists involved in the diagnosis and management of cancer using imaging and interventional radiology.
We look forward to your valuable contributions to this Special Issue.
