Overview

The current guidelines recommend screening for dilated cardiomyopathy in individuals with 2 or 3 family members with primary dilated cardiomyopathy. Screening can be performed using electrocardiograms and echocardiography to measure the size and function of the left ventricle. An underlying genetic mutation in the 40 genes (currently assessed in FCD genetic testing) can be detected in 30 to 40% of FCD patients.

Screening

Screening is only recommended in individuals who have a family history of familial dilated cardiomyopathy (FDC).
