Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Arrhythmic risk stratification in nonischemic cardiomyopathies remains challenging for the clinical cardiologist. In the past, ejection fraction has been the indicator for defibrillator implantation in primary prevention. However, today, we know that we need to go beyond ejection fraction. Scientific evidence has documented the importance of genetics and cardiac MRI in proper arrhythmic risk stratification, but there are still many gray areas in this setting.
With this Special Issue, we ask you to share your experiences regarding proper arrhythmic risk stratification in patients with cardiomyopathy.

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 Cardiovascular Development and Disease 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 2700 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.
