With Immense pleasure, I wish to congratulate Prof. G. N. Mahapatra for organizing this third edition of World Congress in Cardiac Imaging and Clinical Cardiology is a magnificent manner. This provides perhaps the largest inclusive platform, where in, eminent teachers, researchers, thinkers and practitioners of Cardiac Imaging and Clinical Cardiology from all over the world share their immense knowledge and wisdom for the betterment of humanity. Prof. G. N. Mahapatra has been, almost single handedly conducting all the World Congresses in Cardiac Imaging and Clinical Cardiology in Mumbai very successfully till date. This edition will also provide enough inspiration for the next generation to learn directly from these global experts, sharpen their skills as well as harden their determination.

The scientific content of this academic event is sublime. It covers several concepts and updates in this field for debating and challenging with the spirit of science and progress in our minds. A comprehensive textbook shall be released to facilitate us take such debates back to our homes and scrutinize at leisure, some of these abstractions. We can only refine our understanding and savour the knowledge as it unfolds in front of us over time, only through such academic exercises, which Prof G. N. Mahapatra provides us every alternate year.

I wish to convey my heartfelt wishes to every participant in this event to have a successful conference.
