Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a Special Issue focused on imaging technology and radiotherapy.
Skin cancer is the most common human cancer. Over the past four decades, due to the development of imaging, the diagnostic accuracy of non-melanocytic and melanocytic skin cancers has been enhanced. More and more new devices and technologies are beginning to appear, and advances in cancer diagnosis have greatly improved patients’ survival chances.
Additionally, advancements in medical imaging have been critical to the evolution of modern radiotherapy. Radiation therapy is an essential treatment option for cancer treatment and one of the most effective therapies to cure cancer, especially for non-melanoma skin cancer. It also can be delivered in combination with other treatments, which further increases the cure rate for radiation-treated patients.
We eagerly anticipate receiving your valuable contributions to this Special Issue. Your expertise and insights will undoubtedly enrich the content and impact of this publication.
We look forward to your participation.
Dr. Fabio Sandomenico
Guest Editor
