Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced vascular disease diagnostics is a field in continuous and rapid evolution from a biohumoral point of view, a functional diagnostic point of view by using non-ionizing energies, and also from the perspective of the continuous evolution of classic diagnostic imaging. The research of biomarkers in vascular diseases is evolving more and more, especially the timely identification of diseases in order to avoid the devastating effects related to late diagnosis. Alternative non-ionizing energies are instead becoming increasingly important both for cost containment and for reducing patient exposure. For instance, magnets, ultrasound, and various increasingly advanced forms of plethysmography, such as near-infra-red spectroscopy, are just some of the technologies capable of substantially modifying approaches to vascular patients. It is also necessary to extend some of the above technologies to telemedicine or proximity medicine, which are new promising horizons. Finally, even in classic diagnostic imaging, the evolution of protocols and investigation techniques can contribute and significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy, precision and prevention of vascular diseases.
We anticipate the application of artificial intelligence to the field of diagnostic imaging to quickly allow us, together with the management of big data, to take another historic step forward in the history of medicine. This Special Issue of Diagnostics represents a milestone in knowledge relating to vascular diseases.

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. Diagnostics 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.
