Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a Special Issue titled “Advances in Vascular Medicine: From Endovascular Innovations to Pathophysiological Insights”, which aims to highlight the latest research and clinical advancements in vascular health. This Issue will provide a platform for interdisciplinary studies bridging endovascular therapies, diagnostic imaging, and mechanistic discoveries in vascular diseases.
We welcome original research articles and reviews that cover topics such as follows:
- Endovascular innovations: Novel stent technologies, bioresorbable devices, robotic-assisted interventions, and image-guided therapies.
- Vascular pathophysiology: Molecular mechanisms, biomarkers, genetic influences, and cellular pathways in atherosclerosis, aneurysms, and peripheral artery disease.
- Translational and clinical studies: Evidence-based approaches to revascularization, thromboembolic management, and vascular complications of systemic diseases.
- Emerging imaging techniques: Advances in intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and AI-enhanced diagnostics.
This Special Issue seeks to foster collaboration among interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, cardiologists, and translational researchers. By integrating cutting-edge technology with fundamental science, we aim to advance precision medicine in vascular care.
Dr. Edit Dósa
Guest Editor
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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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. Life is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
