Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Emerging Techniques and Clinical Application

Dear Colleagues,

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a powerful imaging technique, and its success is largely driven by its ability for soft tissue characterization and accurate quantification of cardiac function. Over the past few decades, there have been significant advances in CMR technology, clinical applications, and operator experience. However, a few technical hurdles remain that limit a broader application of CMR. These hurdles include long scan times, need for breath-hold techniques, high operator dependence, and susceptibility to metal hardware-related artifacts. I am honored to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue on “Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Emerging Techniques and Clinical Application”. The journal invites submissions focusing on emerging applications, including (but not limited to) parametric mapping, scan time reduction, free-breathing techniques, artifact reduction, automation, and machine learning.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Clinical Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
