Preface
“We live in an era of great innovation and technological evolution, which is expressed at its best in the cardiovascular field. The cross-fertilization between surgical and endovascular treatments, which are functioning complementary, stimulates the constant improvement of both the techniques (e.g., classic cardiac surgery itself entered a new phase of enrichments). This new frontier translates into new needs and new demands, in which a proper understanding of cardiovascular imaging becomes fundamental. Technological evolution has led the world of cardiac imaging to technical possibilities considered unexpected a few years ago. We have moved from two-dimensional diagnostic imaging t
