Precision medicine (PM), a new type of medical concept and model which based on personalized medicine, is developed with the fast progress of genetic detection technology and the cross-application of biological information and large data science. Genetic detection technology is the basis of PM. Cerebrovascular disease is a multifactorial disease, in which genetic factors play an important role in the pathogenesis. This paper intends to discuss the application of gene detection technology in the PM of cerebrovascular disease, including single gene genetic disease, genetic polymorphism, drug genetics research and precision treatment.
