Workshop Description: This workshop provides an up-to-date overview of the clinical application of cardiogenetic testing in the diagnosis and management of inherited cardiovascular conditions. Participants will explore indications for genetic testing in conditions and will learn how to interpret genetic results in a clinical context. Real-world case examples will help translate guidelines into daily clinical practice.
