Preventative Heart Health Package: A Comprehensive Approach to Early Detection
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death globally, often progressing without symptoms until a critical event occurs. Early detection, particularly among individuals with risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease, can drastically improve outcomes. The Preventative Heart Health Package offers a modern, data-driven approach to understanding your cardiovascular status before symptoms arise.
Advanced Imaging: More Than a Calcium Score
At the core of this package is a Coronary CT Angiogram (CCTA)—a non-invasive, high-resolution imaging test that visualizes both calcified and non-calcified atherosclerotic plaque. This is a critical distinction: while calcified plaque indicates long-standing disease, non-calcified plaque is often more prone to rupture, making it a significant predictor of acute coronary events.
The package also includes a coronary artery calcium (CAC) score, a quantitative measure that helps stratify long-term cardiovascular risk. Used together, these tools provide a nuanced and comprehensive view of coronary artery health that surpasses traditional risk assessments.
Expert Review with Dr. Brockenbrough
One of the most valuable components of the Preventative Heart Health Package is the integrated clinical consultation. Patients receive a same-day review of their imaging results with Dr. Brockenbrough, who specializes in cardiovascular imaging and prevention. This immediate feedback loop ensures that individuals walk away with both clarity and a personalized plan of action.
Who Should Consider This Package?
This screening is especially appropriate for:
- Adults over 40 seeking a baseline evaluation
- Patients with metabolic conditions (e.g., diabetes, obesity)
- Individuals with borderline or elevated lipid levels
- Those with a significant family history of heart disease
- Anyone seeking a proactive, evidence-based assessment of their heart health
A Strategic Investment in Your Health
The Preventative Heart Health Package is not designed for patients in crisis—it is meant for individuals who prioritize early intervention and informed decision-making. With a growing body of evidence supporting the value of non-invasive imaging for asymptomatic patients, this package offers clarity in a healthcare landscape that too often relies on reaction rather than prevention.
Schedule your Preventative Heart Health Package today and take the first step toward informed, proactive cardiovascular care.
