CARDIOVASCULAR TESTING
WHAT ARE GLP-1S?
Ultrasound scans of the carotid artery measure the intima-media thickness (IMT) to detect atherosclerosis in its earliest stages. HeartSmart evaluates the state and extent of a patient's atherosclerosis, correlating carotid IMT with the progression of disease in the coronary arteries. Our advanced post-image analysis also assesses the presence and severity of plaques, as well as their vulnerability to rupture, helping to predict the risk of heart attack or stroke.
MEASURE YOUR PROGRESS
Using the Max Pulse, we can quickly and non-invasively determine if you are experiencing arterial wall stiffness and provide an accurate estimate of the biological age of your arteries. This simple finger clip test takes just one minute and offers invaluable insights into your cardiovascular health. With this information, we can tailor a personalized program to address any issues early, helping you stay ahead of potential health concerns.
GLP-1S ARE EVIDENCE BASED
SphygmoCor sets the gold standard in vascular health assessment by accurately analyzing central blood pressures and arterial stiffness—insights that traditional cuff measurements cannot capture. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) and pulse wave analysis (PWA) provide crucial information about arterial stiffness and elasticity, aiding in early detection of cardiovascular risks and informing interventions to maintain or improve heart health.
