Ischemic heart disease remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide and an increasing health problem in developed and developing countries alike. Advanced imaging modalities are increasingly becoming essential tools in the diagnosis and management of ischemic heart disease. This thematic series provides an overview of the well-established imaging modalities in ischemic heart disease, alongside recent advances, and ongoing developments in the field.
