Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Implementation of digital technologies has been enhancing the translational research and development in focusing towards innovative clinical solutions and applications, and solving existing clinical problems. Aim and scope of this Special Issue is the dissemination of novel approaches in orthopedic implant research and development with integration of contemporary digital technologies. In the field of orthopedics and traumatology, high-quality preclinical research and innovative development are advancing to promote excellence in patient care and outcomes in trauma and musculoskeletal disorders, and to contribute in enhancing today's postoperative care and rehabilitation. We are soliciting both own work and review papers.
