Cardiovascular Disease of Animals: Pathophysiology, Anatomy, Diagnosis and Treatment

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the launch of “Cardiovascular Disease of Animals: Pathophysiology, Anatomy, Diagnosis and Treatment”, a Special Issue of the journal Applied Sciences.

Veterinary medicine is a vast field of science that constantly faces new challenges. The development of veterinary cardiology, especially in the field of small animals, is related to the increasing expectations of pet owners regarding the diagnosis and treatment of their pets. This is made possible by the broader use of modern diagnostic techniques, which are becoming increasingly common. Numerous scientific studies are being conducted on experimental animals directly related to using the results in human medicine.

In this Special Issue, we encourage everyone to share the results of their studies in pathophysiology, pathomorphology, anatomy, diagnosis and treatment of animals’ cardiovascular diseases.

In this Special Issue, “Cardiovascular Disease of Animals: Pathophysiology, Anatomy, Diagnosis and Treatment”, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

• Angiology;
• Animal anatomy;
• Cardiology;
• Cardiovascular diseases;
• Congenital heart diseases; 
• Diagnostics in cardiovascular diseases;
• Echocardiography;
• Heart diseases;
• Image techniques;
• Pathological anatomy;
• Pathophysiology;
• Teaching;
• Treatments for cardiovascular diseases.
