HeartSmart – Saving lives through early detection.

Doctors are saving lives every day with HeartSmart.

HeartSmart IMTplus uses ultrasound scans of the carotid artery to determine if disease is present. If so, physicians can provide recommendations that can prevent a heart attack or stroke.

Physicians can use their existing ultrasound equipment to perform the scans or HeartSmart can arrange cost-effective solutions to add ultrasound capability to the office. This makes it convenient for the patient while adding revenue to your practice.

HeartSmart provides all installation, setup and training for your staff to perform the ultrasound scans in your office. Specialized personnel are not required.

Doctors can now detect cardiovascular disease at its earliest stages.

COMPREHENSIVE

HeartSmart IMTplus® uses a continuous video scan to examine the entire carotid tree in both the transverse (cross-sectional) and sagittal (longitudinal) planes to ensure that no pathology is missed.  

ACCURATE

Centralized lab processing.

ACCURATE

The scan video is examined frame-by-frame to identify the presence, composition and severity of plaque, which can rupture and cause a heart attack or stroke. Results can be reproduced, assuring accuracy. 

NON-INVASIVE

No injected contrast materials.

NON-INVASIVE

HeartSmart IMTplus® uses the same B-mode ultrasound as used to scan infants during pregnancy. With injected contrast materials, the process is less stressful for patients and reduces prep time.

COMPLETELY SAFE

There is no radiation.
