Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is my pleasure to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue “Diagnosis and Management of Thyroid Disorders”.
Thyroid disorder is an umbrella term which comprises a wide spectrum of disorders that affect the function and/or size of the thyroid gland. The most common disorders include hyper or hypothyroidism, thyroid nodules and thyroid cancers.
Over the last few decades, with the increasing use of sensitive imaging techniques, the proportion of detected thyroid nodules has increased. Consequently, we need to answer several crucial questions: What are the next steps in diagnosis? How and when do we treat those nodules?
This Special Issue “Diagnosis and Management of Thyroid Disorders” aims to promote research that will advance our current knowledge in the field of thyroid disorders. Included papers need to explore diagnostic challenges in thyroid cancers and to present novel techniques in managing thyroid disorders such as radiofrequency ablation, laser ablation or therapeutic procedures like tyrosine kinase inhibitors for advanced malignant disease.
In this Special Issue, original research articles, reviews and case presentations are welcome.
I am looking forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Vladan Zivaljevic
Guest Editor
