MeSH Heading: Cardiomyopathies
Tree Number(s): C14.280.238
Unique ID: D009202
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D009202
Annotation: general or unspecified; prefer specifics; for infections of the myocardium, coordinate here with infection term, not with HEART DISEASES
Scope Note: A group of diseases in which the dominant feature is the involvement of the CARDIAC MUSCLE itself. Cardiomyopathies are classified according to their predominant pathophysiological features (DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY; HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY; RESTRICTIVE CARDIOMYOPATHY) or their etiological/pathological factors (CARDIOMYOPATHY, ALCOHOLIC; ENDOCARDIAL FIBROELASTOSIS).
