White Paper:
Precision Medicine in Cardiology

In the past, treatment options presented to patients were based on reported symptoms and quantitative diagnostic tests. While this standardized approach can be beneficial, the emergence of precision medicine can offer a customized technique that may lead to more optimal disease management. In 2015, the Precision Medicine Initiative was presented at the State of the Union with a goal to make measurable improvement across therapeutic areas. Therefore, researchers and physicians have worked tirelessly to harness the heterogeneity and homogeneity of a given condition and patient population to better meet their needs.
