Cardiology is the branch of medicine that deals with diseases of the heart and blood vessels.

This task force aims to:
 * increase the quality of the current articles on cardiology topics by increasing their medical content while keeping them accessible to individuals with no medical knowledge
 * facilitate the creation of new articles on topics in cardiology, so that Wikipedia is a more-or-less comprehensive cardiology resource for the public
 * ensure that articles created on cardiology topics are thoroughly referenced and include up-to-date links to the most recent literature
 * explain the use of evidence-based medicine in cardiology and how it is applied to the care of patients with cardiac and vascular diseases.
 * maintain consistency with the medical manual of style in the cardiology articles
 * increase the number of images attached to articles
 * produce cardiology-themed featured articles based on the above
 * include both traditional and complementary and alternative medicine therapies for illnesses cardiologists typically see and treat
 * improve the blueboxes related to cardiology.
