# Journal of the American College of Cardiology (journal-of-the-american-college-of-cardiology)

## Journal positioning

The Journal of the American College of Cardiology is the official flagship of the ACC and the leading venue for cardiovascular medicine that bridges interventional cardiology, imaging, heart failure, electrophysiology, and preventive cardiology under one roof. Unlike Circulation's broad AHA mandate, JACC carries a distinctively proceduralist and device-oriented culture alongside large clinical trials — making it the first-choice venue for coronary intervention, structural heart disease, advanced cardiac imaging, and ACC guideline-informing evidence. The readership is the ACC membership: interventional and general cardiologists, cardiac imaging specialists, heart-failure subspecialists, and the trainees who move across all these areas.

This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the ACC / JACC publisher site and submission system.

## When to trigger

- The author names JACC as the target venue for a cardiovascular clinical or translational paper.
- A paper on coronary intervention, structural heart disease, cardiac imaging, or device therapy needs venue selection among JACC, Circulation, and EHJ.
- A manuscript covering an ACC guideline priority (stable ischemic heart disease, valvular disease, cardiac risk stratification) needs framing guidance.
- The author needs JACC's desk-reject risks and a ranked alternative — including the JACC subspecialty family — before submitting.
