Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on the clinical treatment and management of acute myocardial infarction.

Acute myocardial infarction is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the world.

Particularly, Special Issue will pay special attention to the management of mechanical, arrhythmic and hemodynamic complications and acute and/or chronic medical treatments, such as antitrombotic, lipid-lowering and invasive treatments.

Furthermore, imaging techniques are essential in the evaluation of patients with myocardial infarction. They are of value for both the initial assessment of the ischemic injury and for the detection of those higher risk of developing cardiovascular issues during the follow-up. In this setting, this Special Issue will also focuses on the role of CMR in myocardial and microvascular injury characterization and providing prognosis information.

This Special Issue aims to collect broader and more comprehensive knowledge to provide an overview of the latest advancements and future perspectives in the specialties involved in the management of acute myocardial infarction.
