Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Coronary artery disease remains a predominant cause of morbidity and mortality globally, despite remarkable advancements in cardiovascular medicine. Over the past few decades, innovations in diagnosis, medical therapy, and interventional techniques have substantially improved patient outcomes, yet many challenges persist.
This Special Issue seeks to present comprehensive insights into the evolving landscape of diagnosis, management, and emerging therapeutic approaches in relation to coronary artery disease. It aims to foster scholarly discussion on unresolved clinical challenges and future directions in the field.
Recent breakthroughs in percutaneous coronary intervention, cardiovascular imaging, and biomarker discovery have revolutionized the clinical approach to coronary artery disease. This Special Issue will highlight such state-of-the-art research, which has the potential to shape contemporary and future clinical practice.
We invite submission of original research articles, systematic reviews, and narrative reviews that address novel diagnostic strategies, therapeutic innovations, treatment challenges, biomarker utilization, and the integration of digital technologies in coronary artery disease management.
