Abstract

At the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) congress of this year 2018, held in Munich from August 25th to 29th, 4594 abstracts were presented. Of those, 423 (10.8%) belonged to an imaging category. Experts in echocardiography (VD), cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) (CBD), nuclear imaging (OG), and cardiac computed tomography (CT) (PMH) have selected the abstracts in their areas of expertise that were of most interest to them and are summarized in this bird's eye view from this ESC meeting. These abstracts were integrated by one of the Editors of the Journal (JB).

Keywords: Echocardiography; cardiovascular magnetic resonance; computed tomography; nuclear imaging.
