Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue: Advanced Echocardiography for the Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs). Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the number one cause of death globally, taking an estimated 17.9 million lives each year (WHO).
The main aim of this Special Issue is to showcase new advances echocardiographic (2D/3D/4D) in the diagnosis of CVD and their mitigation for CVD patients. This Special Issue is open to a wide range of methodologies, strategies, diagnostics modalities and technologies. Discussions of advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence or machine learning used in the field of echocardiography for CVDs diagnostics or prevention, are also suitable for inclusion in this publication.
The aim of this Special Issue will be to deliver new insights into the possibility of early detection of CVDs, which could lead to a decrease in morbidity and mortality. Potential topics of discussion include the early identification of subclinical atherosclerosis or coronary artery disease are strongly encouraged.
Authors can submit communications, reviews, and original articles from the field of echocardiography. We welcome submissions from clinical, translational, and case reports.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
