Abstract

The high prevalence and mortality of cardiovascular diseases in China's large population has increased the use of cardiovascular imaging for the assessment of conditions in recent years. In this study, we review the past 20 years of cardiovascular imaging in China, the increasingly important role played by cardiovascular computed tomography in coronary artery disease and pulmonary embolism assessment, magnetic resonance imaging's use for cardiomyopathy assessment, the development and application of artificial intelligence in cardiovascular imaging, and the future of Chinese cardiovascular imaging.
