Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Interventional pulmonology integrates advanced techniques and tools to diagnose and treat a wide range of pulmonary disorders using minimally invasive methods. Over the past few decades, interventional pulmonology has experienced an extraordinary evolution, facilitated by the integration of technological advances with the clinical decision-making process of clinicians, enabling a patient-centered diagnostic and therapeutic approach. This Special Issue aims to explore the latest technological innovations and their clinical applications within the field of interventional pulmonology. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the role of interventional pulmonology in lung cancer screening, the diagnosis of peripheral lung nodules, mediastinal staging, airway stenting, and the potential therapeutic role of endoscopic techniques. We welcome original research and comprehensive reviews that showcase the recent advances in these areas. By highlighting recent progress, this Special Issue seeks to provide clinicians and researchers with a comprehensive overview of the current state and future potential of interventional pulmonology.
