E-Journal of Cardiology Practice

The Council for Cardiology Practice is established as a Council of the European Society of Cardiology. This Council consists of more than 5,000 private-practicing cardiologists in countries such as France, Germany, Spain, Italy and Belgium.

The first collaborative educational tool of the Council is the E-Journal of Cardiology Practice. The E-Journal consists of a three-line message, sent each week to 8,500 cardiologists via email. The message is written by leading experts in Europe, summarising an important topic in cardiology.

	Statins in patients with peripheral arterial disease
30 April 2008 We can now count on three truly effective pharmacological classes : antiplatelet drugs, ACE-I as demonstrated in the HOPE study, and statins...

	Early diagnosis of acute viral myocarditis by cardiovascular magnetic resonance
30 April 2008 CMRI is able to confirm or rule out myocarditis. Myocardial biopsy, on the other hand, is unsuited because of its insensitive and invasive nature....
