Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular disease is one of the diseases with the highest morbidity and mortality rates in the world. The rapid development of cardiovascular computed tomography (CT) technology has provided important tools for non-invasive diagnosis, risk stratification and treatment planning, and plays a key role in guiding cardiovascular interventional treatment.
This Special Issue focuses on the latest research results in the field of cardiovascular CT, covering the diagnosis of cardiovascular-related diseases, functional evaluation of coronary CTA, plaque feature analysis, artificial intelligence-assisted diagnosis, low-dose imaging technology, and emerging clinical applications (such as the evaluation of structural heart disease and cardiomyopathy). We sincerely invite you to submit original research articles and reviews (covering cutting-edge and novel clinical applications) to promote communication among doctors in radiology, cardiology and related fields, and optimize the diagnosis and treatment strategies of cardiovascular diseases.
Dr. Antonella Meloni
Guest Editor
