Over the past few decades, there have been many dramatic innovations in cancer diagnosis and treatment strategies. Medical imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. It provides a comprehensive assessment of the tumors and their environments. Multiple imaging modalities are used for theranostics including optical (fluorescence or bioluminescence), nuclear (PET or SPECT), ultrasound, photoacoustic, CT, and MR imaging techniques. Radiomics is an approach for high-throughput extraction of quantitative imaging features or textures from imaging to decode histopathology and create high-dimensional datasets for feature extraction. Therefore, Radiomics may provide quantitative and objective support for decisions surrounding cancer detection and treatment.
This Research Topic is part of a series with: Multi-targeted Natural Products as Cancer Therapeutics: Challenges and Opportunities, Volume II Cancer remains a leading cause of disease-related deaths worldwide, despite recent advances in our understanding of cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy have been used as standard non-surgical treatments of human cancer for decades, however, the survival rates of patients with cancer, especially those with advanced diseases are still very low due to the high toxicities of these treatments as well as the severe side effects. This fact has motivated researchers to discover new cancer therapeutics with minimum side...
