Abstract:
Heart failure(HF)is the end-stage of various cardiovascular diseases,and its global prevalence is steadily increasing,placing a significant burden on both patients and healthcare systems.As the challenges in diagnosing and treating HF grow,early precise diagnosis,individualized treatment,and monitoring disease progression have become critical issues.The advancement of non-invasive imaging technologies,particularly in ultrasound,computed tomography(CT),nuclear medicine,and magnetic resonance imaging,provides new solutions to address these challenges.Therefore,this special issue focuses on the application of non-invasive imaging in HF,aiming to offer more accurate diagnostic and therapeutic support to clinical practice.This issue highlights the latest advancements in ultrasound,CT,nuclear medicine,and magnetic resonance imaging in HF diagnosis and treatment,emphasizing the unique contributions of each imaging modality in addressing key issues in HF.These studies demonstrate the critical role of non-invasive imaging in early diagnosis,functional assessment,and risk stratification in HF,providing innovative ideas and methods for clinical practice.Although significant progress has been made in imaging technologies for HF management,challenges such as standardization and data integration remain.In the future,the combination of artificial intelligence and multimodal imaging will further enhance the accuracy and efficiency of HF management,while promoting the widespread application of imaging in precision medicine for HF.
