Heart Disease: Diagnosis & Treatment

Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, yet diagnosis and treatment continue to improve. This course explains how heart disease develops, how it is detected, and how modern tools support better care. You'll learn about cardiac biomarkers, advanced imaging, genetic testing, and AI-assisted diagnostics — and how these tools combine for personalised treatment decisions. Each module builds your understanding step by step, from foundational concepts to cutting-edge approaches. Whether you live with heart disease, support someone who does, or want to deepen your knowledge, this course helps you make informed, confident choices.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Describe the spectrum of heart disease and its public health significance.
  • Identify key cardiac biomarkers and their clinical diagnostic utility.
  • Describe advanced cardiac imaging modalities and their clinical applications.
  • Explain how genetic testing and AI tools are applied in cardiovascular diagnosis.
  • Analyze how multiple diagnostic tools are integrated for comprehensive cardiac assessment.
  • Apply the principles of personalized medicine to heart disease treatment planning.
