Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Urologic oncology is a rapidly evolving field that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of cancers affecting the urological system, including the kidneys, bladder, prostate, and testicles. Accurate and timely diagnosis is a crucial step in the management of urologic cancers, allowing for the implementation of appropriate treatment strategies that can improve patient outcomes.

We welcome researchers, clinicians, and other healthcare professionals to share their latest findings and developments in the diagnosis of urologic oncology. We invite submissions on a wide range of topics, including imaging modalities, biomarkers, liquid biopsies, and artificial intelligence applications in urologic oncology diagnosis. By bringing together cutting-edge research and clinical experiences, we aim to advance the field of urologic oncology and ultimately improve patient care.

Dr. Francesco Chessa
