Molecular and Imaging Studies of Cardiovascular Health and Disease (Biobank)

June 14, 2016 updated by: National Heart Centre Singapore
Biobank is a program which collects biological samples, health information and imaging data from consented patients and stored them at the core facility. These information would be used to study the molecular, imaging and outcome studies of cardiovascular health and disease.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This program recruits patient from National Heart Centre Singapore and collects their biological sample, health information and imaging data.The donated biospecimens will be stored indefinitely and used for any future research on molecular, imaging and outcome studies of cardiovascular health and disease.The same biological samples and imaging data will be obtained from consented healthy volunteers for comparison.
