Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is focused on clinical, radiological, and biochemical evaluation in the orthopedic field, the protagonist of important changes in recent years. From robotics-assisted surgeries to 3D-printed implants, smart and wearable technology, regenerative medicine, and tissue engineering, various cutting-edge devices are revolutionizing orthopedic surgery.
Considering these new directions and the importance of improving of minimally invasive, percutaneous, and nano-surgical procedures, it is vital that we evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes in treated patients. Additionally, studies focused on biochemical evaluation are welcome, as different biomarkers could be useful in diagnosing and managing an orthopedic pathology or could serve as disease predictors and prognostic factors. From this perspective, we intend for this Special Issue to collect original articles and reviews around these topics.
