Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardio-oncology addresses the intricate relationship between cancer treatment and cardiovascular well-being. While advances in oncology have led to improved survival rates and quality of life, they have also introduced potential cardiac complications. This field is of paramount importance as cardiovascular issues have risen to become a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among cancer survivors.
Notable recent developments in cardio-oncology encompass:
- Precision Medicine: Tailored cancer treatments now necessitate a comprehensive understanding of individual cardiovascular risk factors.
- Cardiovascular Imaging: Advanced imaging modalities have enabled detection of cardiac concerns during cancer therapy.
- Biomarkers: The discovery of novel biomarkers holds the promise of predicting and effectively managing cardiotoxicity.
- Cardiovascular Prevention: Evolving strategies for avoiding cardiac complications during cancer treatment include lifestyle interventions and cardioprotective medications.
In this Special Issue, we want to invite authors to submit their papers covering all areas from prevention to diagnosis. This Special Issue will be accepting the following types of articles:
- Original;
- Systematic review and meta-analysis;
- Correspondence;
- Case report.
Submission Deadline: 10th March 2024
