Risk of heart disease often runs in families, suggesting a genetic influence. Genetic testing allows us to look at your DNA to identify any differences that could predispose you to developing certain health problems. In some cases genetic testing may be used to diagnose an inherited cardiac disease. However, in most cases genetic testing is used to help determine which family members could develop the heart problems that are running in the family and which family members will not develop those heart problems. Those identified at risk of heart disease could change their lifestyle and take therapeutic measures to reduce their risk of developing the disease.
