Cardiomyopathy classification separates the various cardiomyopathies into several subtypes. Cardiomyopathy is defined as a "disease of the myocardium with associated cardiac dysfunction". It has been classified according to the 1995 WHO/ISFC system as follows.

dilated cardiomyopathy
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
restrictive cardiomyopathy
arrthymogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
specific cardiomyopathy
non classified cardiomyopathies which include :
- fibroelastosis
- mildly dilated cardiomyopathy
- non compacted myocardium
- mitochondrial cardiomyopathy
