Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic analysis using massive parallel sequencing is crucial for the accurate and early diagnosis of hereditary hypertrophic cardiomyopathies and their phenocopies, especially transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) and Fabry disease (FD). This study extends the cardio next-generation sequencing (NGS) pilot study by investigating the detection rate of gene variants causing increased left...
