Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is dedicated to the in-depth analysis of the latest diagnostic and interventional radiology advancements, focusing on treating liver diseases. In this Special Issue, we seek diverse articles, including pioneering research findings and detailed clinical case studies. We aim to deepen the understanding of this vital medical field and highlight radiology's dynamic and evolving role in liver diseases.

We are interested in submissions exploring advancements in imaging modalities, like MRI, CT scans, and ultrasound. These technologies are crucial in accurately diagnosing various liver conditions and are pivotal in early detection, significantly impacting patients’ treatment plans. 

A significant portion is devoted to the latest minimally invasive techniques. Contributions detailing procedures, like transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and other innovative interventional methods, are highly encouraged. We also emphasize the role of artificial intelligence and cutting-edge imaging in enhancing the precision and effectiveness of both diagnostic and interventional procedures. Submissions that explore integrating these technologies in clinical practice, offering new perspectives on patient management and treatment strategies, are highly encouraged.

Who Should Contribute?

This Special Issue will assist many medical professionals, including radiologists, interventionalists, and hepatologists. We aim to bridge the gaps between different specialties and foster an integrated approach to liver disease management. In line with our commitment to broad knowledge dissemination, all the papers in this Special Issue will be fully open access upon publication after a thorough peer-review process.
