Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past decade, interventional oncology (IO) has continued to make significant strides in many areas. The initial growth had largely centered on detailing technical know-how, developing novel ideas, and ingenious problem-solving, which are hallmarks of our interventional radiology roots. While these remain key underpinnings of IO, much of the recent evolution has been in the form of deep diving into the science behind what we do, continued device development to improve consistency, safety, and outcome, and, most importantly, translating them into the standard of care through studies and rigorous data collection. In this Special Issue on “Imaging-Guided Techniques in Interventional Oncology”, you will find a series of curated articles by not just experts, but also the pacesetters and thought leaders in the various aspects of IO, spanning ablation, embolotherapy, and palliation. This Special Issue will serve as a reference for practice updates and future development.
