Imaging
A section of Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease (ISSN 2308-3425).
Section Information
At the Imaging Section, we welcome not only original and novel studies but also validation studies with large sample sizes. Additionally, pilot studies with excellent methodologies and high relevance will be considered for publication. Moreover, well-designed and clinically relevant meta-analyses or case series (i.e., comprehensive descriptions of ≥10 clinical cases on a relevant topic or disease) will also be considered as original studies. Reviews on relevant and trending topics will be highly regarded for publication.
The Imaging Section will mainly cover the following areas or topics:
- Echocardiography;
- Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance;
- Cardiac Computed Tomography;
- Cardiac SPECT;
- Cardiac PET;
- Valvular Heart Disease;
- Heart Failure;
- Arterial Hypertension;
- Preventive Medicine and Cardiovascular Risk Factors;
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Cardiovascular Imaging.
