Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
There are significant geographical variations in the incidence of gynecological cancers worldwide. Patient outcomes depend on understanding tumor biology, prevention and screening, timely interventions and appropriate treatment. Additionally, epidemiological studies can help policy makers direct precious resources and shape healthcare systems.
We would therefore like to invite authors to contribute to this Special Issue, which focuses on new developments, such as the incidence and prevalence of women’s cancers, lifestyle factors, investigative pathways, genetic testing, new staging systems, quality of life, adjunctive treatment algorithms and the impact of low resources on patient survival.
