About this Research Topic
Modern neurosurgery is an area that is still in its infancy and research plays an important role in its viability. Neurosurgeons and neurosurgeon candidates must develop a variety of research projects, including laboratory research in basic neurosurgery, translational research and drug discovery / development, clinical trials and epidemiology, clinical / population research / database research, and bioengineering and device development. At the same time, neuroanatomy is the basis of neurosurgery, where the study of certain aspects of neuroanatomy is the key to the success of neurosurgeons and the health of patients. All this together will lead to the creation of new methods for early diagnosis, prediction, and low-traumatic techniques of treating complex neurosurgical diseases.
The special issue "Modern Neurosurgery and Neuroanatomy" will discuss new approaches to solving the problems of new diagnostic methods, including liquid biopsy, problems of operative and non-operative treatment of a wide range of diseases of the nervous system with a bias using modern methods. This includes the diagnosis and treatment of tumors of the brain and spinal cord, injuries of the central nervous system, as well as peripheral nerves, infections of the nervous system, and anomalies of its development. Modern innovative technologies of treatment and diagnostics will solve most of the neurosurgical problems. Anatomical articles combined with experimental research are encouraged to better understand the principles of the anatomical structure of the central and peripheral nervous system.
Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
1) Clinical and experimental neurosurgery.
2) Minimally invasive surgical techniques.
3) Elements of descriptive neuroanatomy (skull base, internal structures, spine, vascular, etc).
4) Functional neurosurgical procedures, and techniques in neuroanatomical research.
We invite authors to submit their original articles, brief reports, literature reviews, and case reports about neurosurgery and neuroanatomy to Frontiers in Surgery - Neurosurgery.
