Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the top three most widespread cancers worldwide. The outcomes of numerous research works displayed that the exact precise categorization of medical images could efficiently resolve the advancement of colorectal cancer. The primary goals of this Special Issue are to emphasize the role of medical imaging in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer, describe the state of the art in imaging of colorectal cancer and review imaging modalities used to assess colorectal cancer.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
(1) Clinicopathological studies of colorectal cancer;
(2) Molecular diagnosis and genetic studies of colorectal cancer;
(3) Diagnosis imaging for colorectal cancer;
(4) Radiotherapy for colorectal cancer;
(5) Prognostic assessment for treatment of colorectal cancer.
