The cardiology diagnostic are the methods of identifying current or past heart conditions, which can advise caregivers on patient diagnosis and provide a proper therapy plan, nowadays couple new diagnostic methods have been developed and some of them like radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging, coronary computed tomography angiogram, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, intravascular ultrasonography, optical coherence tomography, intravascular thermography, intravascular elastography, and near-infrared spectroscopy have been approved for clinical use. Not only the advanced technologies, the new biomarkers, and genetic markers may provide new potential targets for the diagnosis, therapy, and prevention of heart diseases.

Heart transplantation is a surgical procedure performed on patients with end-stage heart failure or other irreversible heart disease, Heart transplant prolongs the life of severe heart disease patients. Most of the receipts could survive more than 2-3 years, five-year survival rate could reach 70-80% with immunosuppressive therapy, rejection still an important problem after transplantation. Currently, traditional calcineurin inhibitors, antimetabolite agents, and steroids, wildly used after transplantation, the new generation of immunosuppressive medicines have been developed, and cell-based immunotherapy, as mesenchymal stem cell, myeloid-derived suppressor cells, dendritic cells, pluripotent cells and Treg cells are promising to be used in cellular immunotherapy in organ transplantation.
