Special Issue on Childhood Cancer

Childhood cancer is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of cancer in children. Cancer in children can occur anywhere in the body, including the blood and lymph node system, brain and central nervous system, and kidneys. Most of the time, there is no known cause for childhood cancers. Childhood cancers may behave very differently from adult cancers, even when they start in the same part of the body.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Childhood Cancer. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Leukemia
• Brain and spinal cord tumors
• Neuroblastoma
• Hodgkin disease
• Rhabdomyocarcoma
• Retinoblastoma
• Osteosarcoma
• Chemotherapy
• Radiation therapy

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Childhood Cancer” should be selected during your submission.
