Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The management of brain tumors is highly complicated and requires the input and knowledge from experts of multiple medical specialties, including neurology, oncology, neurosurgery, radiation oncology, neuro-radiology, and neuropathology. Each of these specialties has seen important progress in recent years, including improvement in surgical techniques and radiation oncology approaches, and the identification of specific targets such as BRAF mutations or NTRK fusions. To highlight these advancements, the JCM is proud to edit a Special Issue devoted specifically to current challenges in the diagnosis, management, and outcome of brain tumors, including primary CNS lymphoma. We look forward to receiving your original contributions.
Dr. Andreas F. Hottinger
Guest Editor
