Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
“Innovative Surgical Research” is a Special Issue of JCM which is dedicated to innovative diagnostic and operating technologies used in general surgery, urology, and otorynolaryngoiatrics. We welcome original papers and reviews focused on neoplastic diseases and placing emphasis on pathophysiological conditions induced by surgical intervention. As regards diseases of surgical interest, issues of basic research, including knowledge of molecular genetics, neuroendocrine, and immune mechanisms will be addressed, as well as new therapeutic strategies and the development of innovative surgical and minimally invasive methodologies.
We welcome research aimed at identifying etiological factors and novel prevention and diagnostic and therapeutic targets through original studies of tumors and their microenvironment. Sampling of human cancer using minimal invasive diagnostics (i.e. liquid biopsies), knowledge on cancer progression, studies of evidence-based risk, predictive biomarkers of early diagnosis, treatment and disease monitoring, and translation research in prevention, diagnostics, and care will be considered.
For this Special Issue, potential topics include but are not limited to:
- Minimally invasive surgical treatment;
- Endoscopic digestive surgery;
- Endovascular surgery;
- Minimally invasive urology;
- Minimally invasive head and neck surgery;
- Early diagnosis of cancers;
- Near-infrared/indocyanine green (NIR/ICG) technology imaging
- Fluorescence imaging
- Surgical robotics
- 3D bioprinting
- Machine learning
- Artificial Intelligence
In light of these new advancements and needs, the Journal of Clinical Medicine has launched a Special Issue on innovative surgical research. We are prioritizing high-quality original studies but also welcome well-designed meta-analyses and reviews. We look forward to your contribution.
