About this Research Topic
The recent advancements and developments reached in Cardiovascular MedTech, especially over the past year, have been exceptional and are the result of the great achievements made by researchers and scientists thus far.
In order to explore this fast-growing field, Frontiers is launching a new series of Research Topics focusing on the evolution of methods, processes, techniques and ways of thinking in the Cardiovascular field that lead to new discoveries and research approaches. In this article collection, we seek contributions exploring the changing context and the rising new perspectives within Cardiovascular MedTech.
The emphasis of this series is on the dynamics of change and evolution of the latest progresses made, as well as on the evolving methods and responses in research in the field of Cardiovascular MedTech surrounding the development of technologies and treatments, across a broad range of topics that are relevant to cardiovascular medical implants and devices, applied to the coronary system (including coronary vasculature and structural heart), the broader vascular system (including abdominal, thoracic, peripheral and cerebral vasculature, etc.), and the associated diseases and conditions of these systems .
This article collection will inform, inspire and provide direction and guidance to researchers in the field.
Topics may include, but are by no means limited to:
• Permanent, biodegradable, smart implants and devices
• delivery technologies
• electrical stimulation and denervation
• soft robotics
• device control and actuation
• analytical and computational mechanics (solids and fluids)
• in-vitro, ex-vivo and in-vivo testing
• electrical and electronic engineering
• rapid and additive manufacturing
• data analytics
