Abstract
This review examines the role of diagnostic and prognostic testing in heart failure. It discusses the use of biomarkers, genetic testing, and advanced imaging techniques, such as echocardiography and cardiac MRI, for heart failure diagnosis and severity assessment. Key prognostic markers include natriuretic peptides, functional capacity measures, and imaging parameters. Collectively, these provide a comprehensive evaluation of disease progression and prognosis. These diagnostic and prognostic tools are essential for heart failure diagnosis and for guiding treatment strategies to improve outcomes.
