Advancements in Cardiovascular Medicine and Interventional Radiology

Dear Colleagues,

Heart and circulatory disorders remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, accounting for 1 in 3 deaths worldwide or around 60,000 deaths in one day or one death every 1.5 seconds. This estimated loss of more than 20 million lives annually worldwide constantly urges medical professionals to seek novel and advanced treatment strategies to properly address the disease burden and to help the affected individuals.

The field of cardiovascular disease management has seen remarkable advancements in recent decades, driven by innovative technologies, research breakthroughs, and evolving therapeutic strategies in various medical disciplines, including interventional cardiology, cardiovascular surgery, and interventional radiology. The evolution of novel medication, development of minimally invasive interventional and surgical procedures, the integration of various treatment modalities, and personalized medicine approaches have revolutionized the way we diagnose, treat, follow, and prevent cardiovascular disorders.

We would like to invite you to submit papers thematically connected to the scope of this Special Issue.

Authors are welcome to submit original articles, reports on novel treatment strategies and advances in decision making, clinical outcome studies, comparative studies, narrative reviews, scoping reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. We believe that Advancements in Cardiovascular Medicine and Interventional Radiology is an ideal platform to exchange perspectives and novelties in the management of cardiovascular disorders.
