Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The urinary system plays a vital role in maintaining the body's internal equilibrium by regulating fluid balance, electrolytes and waste excretion. However, when dysfunction occurs within this intricate system, it can lead to a myriad of disorders with varying degrees of severity.
Recent studies have shown the development of newer screening, diagnostic assays that can be very precise in discovering and discriminating the characteristics of many urological conditions. New advanced treatment approaches and therapeutic modalities for those diseases have also been developed, while several others are currently being evaluated in preclinical or clinical trials.
In this Special Issue, we delve into the latest advancements, challenges and emerging trends in the diagnosis, treatment and management of urinary diseases, from common conditions such as urinary tract infections and kidney stones to more complex disorders such as kidney, bladder and prostate cancer.
We prioritize high-quality original studies, encourage multidisciplinary works and welcome well-designed meta-analyses and reviews. Articles about malignant diseases such as kidney cancer, bladder cancer and prostate cancer are especially welcome.
