Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We want to thank all our colleagues who contributed high-quality manuscripts to the previous Special Issue, titled “Advances in the Diagnosis and Management of Kidney Diseases”. The positive feedback and interest that we received encouraged us to launch a second volume, which focuses on the diagnosis of kidney diseases.
Kidney disease appears in various forms: it can be asymptomatic or present with severe symptoms that require immediate intensive care with renal replacement therapy. Various kidney diseases can be evaluated through urinalysis, blood chemistry, chest PA, KUB, and renal sonography. Recently, research has been actively conducted on various types of biomarkers for the early detection of acute and chronic kidney damage; moreover, the discovery of new biomarkers through blood and pathology in the field of glomerular kidney disease has led to new diagnostic and management paradigms. Recently, rapidly developing medical diagnostic technology and the challenge of specialized targeted therapy based on disease mechanisms have been demonstrated through animal and clinical studies of kidney disease.
This Special Issue seeks research on new discoveries in the diagnosis and management of kidney disease. We look forward to receiving original articles, reviews, and short communications that highlight research results for biomarkers in various fields, enhanced imaging technology, new pathologic diagnoses, new approaches to disease mechanisms, specialized targeted therapy, and the diagnosis and management of kidney diseases using artificial intelligence.
