Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diseases is launching a Special Issue entitled “Gastric Cancer: New Trends in Endoscopic Diagnosis Staging and Treatment”. Diseases is an international, peer-reviewed, open access, and multidisciplinary journal that focuses on the latest and most outstanding research on diseases and conditions, published quarterly online by MDPI. The first issue was released in 2013.
In 2024, 1.1 million individuals worldwide were diagnosed with gastric cancer and 770,000 died from it, making this neoplasia as the sixth-most common cancer and third-leading cause of cancer death.
Diagnoses of gastric cancer are made daily, and efforts to study the lesions and correctly stage and identify prognostic factors can affect therapy outcomes of patients and determine their chance of healing or survival.
Thus, the aim of this Special Issue is to collect original papers or reviews about the wide and interesting topic of the use of endoscopic in the proper diagnosis, staging and treatment of gastric cancer in its earlier or more advanced forms.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Kind regards
Dr. Germana de Nucci
Dr. Gianpiero Manes
