Description
Karen Flores Rosario and Melissa Daubert review in 2024 how better heart scans and early gene testing can sharpen care for dilated cardiomyopathy, a disease where the heart stretches and weakens. The cause is often hard to pin down, and slow answers can delay the treatment that fits.
More than a third of cases have a genetic root, yet testing still finds the fault in only about one in five adults with unexplained heart inflammation. The authors show how modern scans, including magnetic resonance imaging of the heart, reveal the pattern of damage without surgery. Pairing those images with early gene tests helps doctors name the cause, tailor care to each patient, and check family members who may share the risk.
