Coronary artery disease remains a principal cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. During the last decade, both non-invasive and invasive imaging techniques, as well as assessment of coronary physiology and hemodynamics have provided significant prognostic information and improved the identification of high-risk patients and coronary lesions.
The goal of this special edition Research Topic is to shed light on the progress made in the prediction of adverse coronary events, and on its future challenges to provide a thorough overview of the field. This article collection will inspire, inform and provide direction and guidance to researchers and clinicians in the field.
We aim at collecting several high-quality reviews (narrative or systematic) and original research papers from renowned experts in the different approaches to predict adverse coronary events. Both invasive and non-invasive imaging, as well as intracoronary physiology techniques, will be explored in their specific predictive value and compared in a final piece of opinion by the Editors.
