European Radiology Cardiovascular and Thoracic is dedicated to advancing multimodality cardiovascular and thoracic imaging by publishing innovations within the field, addressing current limitations, and offering clinically meaningful insights.
The journal focuses on both clinical and technical developments, with the overarching mission of improving patient care and outcomes in cardiovascular and thoracic disease. It is open to submissions of original articles, reviews, Letters-to-the-editor, and practice-oriented articles.<\/p>\n

The journal welcomes submissions on:
\u2022 Multimodality, quantitative and functional imaging in cardiovascular and thoracic disease
\u2022 Retrospective and prospective clinical imaging studies
\u2022 Technological developments, innovations, radiation dose aspects, and new procedures including interventions in cardiovascular and thoracic imaging and management
\u2022 Educational, professional and management issues in cardiovascular and thoracic imaging
\u2022 Guidelines, recommendations, and statements from experts, leading institutions, and cardiovascular and chest imaging societies
\u2022 Emerging topics in cardiovascular and thoracic imaging and related care
\u2022 Cardiovascular and thoracic imaging AI-applications, radiomics and biomarker discovery
European Radiology Cardiovascular and Thoracic is owned by the European Society of Radiology (ESR) in collaboration with the European Society of Cardiovascular Radiology (ESCR) and the European Society of Thoracic Imaging (ESTI), and welcomes submissions from all regions, aiming to publish articles that are globally relevant.
It is a Gold Open Access<\/strong> journal – all articles are freely available on the publisher\u2019s portal Springer Nature Link.<\/p>\n
