Clinical Advances and Challenges in Vascular and Endovascular Medicine

Dear Colleagues,

Vascular and endovascular medicine are specialized fields of medicine that focus on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases affecting the blood vessels. Endovascular treatments such as angioplasty, stenting, and embolization have revolutionized the treatment of vascular diseases, reducing the need for open surgery and improving patient recovery times. Recent clinical advances in vascular imaging technologies, such as CT angiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), have improved the accuracy of diagnosis, allowing for earlier detection and treatment of vascular disease. However, these advances have also brought challenges, include the development of better preventative measures and more effective treatments for vascular diseases such as arterial aneurysms, peripheral artery disease, and venous thromboembolism.

In conclusion, while recent clinical advances in vascular and endovascular medicine have greatly improved patient outcomes, they have also introduced new challenges that will require ongoing attention from the medical community. Addressing these challenges will require continued innovation, research, and collaboration among practitioners in these fields. We look forward to your enthusiastic participation in this Special Issue that will promote scientific communication of our knowledge with the ultimate goal of positively influencing treatment and care for our patients.

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. 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.
