Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are constantly improving. Therefore, a surgery will be less traumatic, or it will give a better outcome. Diagnostic exams follow the same path, as it is in our best interest to evolve and ameliorate our methods so that we can better identify the pathology. Imaging techniques, such as ultrasound, radiography, and arthroscopy, are constantly evolving, and they are a key element for everyday clinical practice. Advanced modalities such as CT, MRI, and scintigraphy are an excellent support for advanced examinations.
Under this massive technology, it is essential to constantly adapt, improve, and develop novel techniques and uses that will help to enhance clinical diagnostics, surgical methods, and therapeutic plans.
(1) The main scope of this Special Issue is to focus on novel imaging techniques or methods that will help to assist diagnostics, surgical or medical techniques, such as CT-assisted surgery and ultrasound guided approaches.
(2) New methods, applications, techniques that will assist and help with improving current therapeutic, surgical, and diagnostic approaches—for example, how to construct a new arthroscopy approach or different applications on MRI or CT, as well as novel uses on ultrasound, endoscopy, etc.
