Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As we advance into a new era of medical diagnostics, cardiac imaging remains at the forefront, pivotal in transforming patient care and clinical outcomes. This Special Issue seeks to encapsulate the most recent advancements in multimodal cardiac imaging technologies. Our focus extends across a broad spectrum of clinical applications, highlighting the integration of traditional and innovative imaging modalities to enhance our understanding and management of cardiovascular diseases.
Contributions to this Special Issue will cover groundbreaking research and developments in nuclear imaging techniques, including scintigraphy and positron emission tomography (PET), alongside advanced methodologies in computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and echocardiography. Each of these modalities offers unique insights, from the molecular and functional analysis provided by nuclear imaging to the detailed anatomical reconstructions possible with CT and MRI, and the real-time functional assessment provided by echocardiography.
This Special Issue aims to bridge diverse clinical scenarios, ranging from common conditions such as coronary artery disease and heart failure to more specialized contexts such as rare genetic disorders, cardiomyopathies, metabolic dysfunctions and infective complications. Through this comprehensive coverage, we hope to foster a deeper understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying these conditions, enabling more precise diagnostic strategies and therapeutic interventions.
Researchers and clinicians are invited to contribute original research articles, reviews and perspective pieces that explore these areas. By sharing insights from various global experts, this Special Issue will serve as an invaluable resource for those looking to stay abreast of the latest trends and innovations in the field of cardiac imaging, ultimately contributing to enhanced patient care and clinical decision making.

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 Personalized Medicine 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 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.
