Aim and Scope


"Cardiology" features first reports on original clinical, preclinical and fundamental research as well as "Novel Insights from Clinical Experience" and topical comprehensive reviews in selected areas of cardiovascular disease. Investigators from all over the world contribute to keep readers regularly informed of current strategies in the prevention, recognition and treatment of heart disease. Their articles not only describe but offer critical appraisals of new developments in non-invasive and invasive diagnostic methods and in pharmacologic, nutritional and mechanical/surgical therapies. Following the incorporation of the journal Heart Drug, "Cardiology" has increased its coverage of issues relating to cardiovascular clinical pharmacology and drug trials.
