Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sports cardiology is a rapidly evolving field, driven by the increasing recognition of cardiovascular conditions in athletes. Over the past decade, innovations in diagnostic tools, imaging techniques, and risk stratification strategies have significantly advanced our understanding of cardiovascular health in sports contexts. These breakthroughs are essential in improving the detection, diagnosis, and management of cardiovascular conditions, ultimately enhancing athletic performance and safeguarding the health of athletes.
This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the latest advancements in sports cardiology diagnostics. From cutting-edge imaging modalities to novel biomarkers and sophisticated risk assessment models, the contributions gathered here highlight the forefront of research that is reshaping clinical practice. As sports cardiology continues to grow, it is crucial that we stay ahead of emerging trends to ensure that athletes receive the most accurate, timely, and personalized care.
The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight advancements in non-invasive imaging, genetic screening, wearable technology, and the integration of artificial intelligence into clinical decision-making.
