Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Ultrasound represents a fundamental method for evaluating gastrointestinal organs and diseases. The development of new ultrasound applications allows us to collect fundamental data to make therapeutic decisions. The aim of this Special Issue is to collect scientific evidence on new applications in the field of gastrointestinal ultrasound or to provide complete reviews on various topics, which may include the following: ultrasound and bowel diseases, liver diseases, cirrhosis, and chronic inflammatory diseases. Original research articles and reviews are welcome.

I look forward to receiving your contributions.

Dr. Andrea Boccatonda
Guest Editor
