Special Issue on Aneurysm Research

An aneurysm is an abnormal widening or ballooning of a portion of an artery, due to weakness in the wall of the blood vessel. Aneurysms can occur in any blood vessel, with examples including aneurysms of the circle of Willis in the brain, aortic aneurysms affecting the thoracic aorta, and abdominal aortic aneurysms. Aneurysms can also occur within the heart itself. As one of the most important research fields of medicine, aneurysm research is of great attraction to researchers.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring aneurysm research. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Types of aneurysms
• Causes and risk factors of aneurysms
• Signs and symptoms of aneurysms
• Diagnosis of aneurysms
• Treatment of aneurysms
• Prevention of aneurysms

Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal at Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Aneurysm Research” should be chosen during your submission.
