Cardiac Sarcoidosis: Diagnosis and Emerging Therapeutic Strategies

Dear Colleagues,

Cardiac sarcoidosis is a heterogeneous condition that is associated with high grade atrioventricular bock, ventricular arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death in young individuals. What was historically considered a rare and underdiagnosed condition is now increasingly being diagnosed early with the advent of advanced imaging, namely cardiac MRI and FDG-PET scan. However, much remains unknown—what are the ideal treatment options? When should cardiac devices be considered? Who should be screened? What are the high-risk features (demographic, clinical, and imaging)? In this Special Issue, we invite authors to submit papers addressing some of these knowledge gaps with the aim to improve the lives of patients affected by cardiac sarcoidosis.
