Using genetics in a cardiology practice
At the 2018 Canadian Cardiovascular Congress, the Ted Rogers Centre held a workshop focused on the utility of genetic testing in a cardiology practice.
In it, an expert panel comprising cardiologists, genetic counsellors and a patient explored the landscape of modern genetic testing, what it means for clinicians in the cardiovascular space, and what it means for families.
