New research highlights risk of 'false positives' among black athletes following cardiac testing
Published paper is ‘Editor’s Pick’ in April 30th issue of Circulation; and underlines the need for expert screening and diagnosis to prevent unnecessary disqualification of elite athletes. Researchers funded by CRY have published new research in one of the world’s leading cardiology journals, ‘Circulation’, which highlights the importance of expertise when conducting cardiac screening, because of
Dr Abbas Zaidi is interviewed about his presentation at EuroPRevent 2011
In April, CRY’s Research Fellows attended EuroPRevent 2011. Organised by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), it is the biggest meeting in Europe on Cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation. Held over 3 days, it includes meetings, presentations and courses with the aim of advancing knowledge. Both existing and previous CRY Research Fellows presented their research to attendees
