Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues
We are pleased to announce a new Special Issue of Diagnostics, titled “New Advances in Foot and Ankle Surgery: Diagnosis and Treatment”.
The landscape of foot and ankle surgery is undergoing a transformative shift, with unprecedented advancements in both diagnosis and treatment modalities. Cutting-edge imaging technologies, such as MRI and CT scans, offer unparalleled insights into the intricate structures of the foot and ankle, enabling more accurate diagnoses of conditions ranging from ligament injuries to degenerative joint diseases. Additionally, novel surgical techniques, including arthroscopy and robotic-assisted procedures, are revolutionizing treatment approaches, allowing for minimally invasive interventions with reduced post-operative pain and faster recovery times. Moreover, the integration of regenerative medicine, such as platelet-rich plasma therapy and stem cell injections, into patient care holds promise for promoting tissue healing and restoring function in damaged foot and ankle tissues.
This Special Issue will include research advancing current knowledge in the field of foot and ankle diseases. In this Special Issue, original research articles, reviews, and case presentations are welcome.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Chul Hyun Park
Guest Editor
