Coronary Artery Disease Detection
Through investment in technology, Mercy Northwest Arkansas can detect coronary artery disease through non-invasive testing. The process starts with a CT scan of the heart including the option for a one-beat, motion-free cardiac scan. Next, using artificial intelligence and computer-assisted design, a 3D, digital model of the heart is developed. The completed analysis is a color-coded, digital 3D model of the heart and arteries, reflecting the impact that blockages have on blood flow. The entire process of receiving this testing is conducted non-invasively.
