Caristo Diagnostics to Present at SCCT 2025
Caristo Diagnostics, a notable leader in cardiovascular disease diagnostics, is poised to showcase groundbreaking clinical and research results surrounding its CaRi-Heart technology at the upcoming SCCT 2025 conference. The conference offers a platform for medical professionals to engage with cutting-edge innovations in cardiac imaging and risk assessment.
Innovative Predictive Insights from CaRi-Heart Technology
The new findings reveal that the CaRi-Heart FAI-Score technology can accurately predict cardiac risks, even among patients who show low or zero calcium scores—traditionally categorized as low-risk. This advancement not only challenges existing norms but also encourages a re-evaluation of how cardiac risks are assessed in various patient populations.
Significant Research Results Unveiled
Dr. Kenneth Chan, a clinical research fellow from the University of Oxford, will present a pivotal abstract entitled, 'Coronary Inflammation Predicts Cardiac Risk in Patients with No and Moderate Coronary Calcification.' This research is based on an extensive study involving 20,000 patients, illustrating the efficacy of the FAI-Score in identifying risks in those previously deemed safe.
Insights from NHS Implementation
Presentations at the symposium will reflect findings from a large-scale implementation of CaRi-Heart technology at five NHS hospitals in the UK. The results will address how inflammation-driven risk stratification tailors patient management effectively, underscoring the technology’s positive impact on real-world clinical practices.
Engaging Experts at the Caristo Symposium
The Caristo symposium, scheduled for July 19, will feature esteemed experts in cardiology, including Dr. Tim Fairbairn, Dr. Ron Blankstein, and Professor Stefan Neubauer. Their insights will contribute significantly to understanding how CaRi-Heart can influence patient outcomes through innovative data analysis.
Breakthrough Regulatory Approvals
This year marks a significant achievement for Caristo, having attained crucial U.S. regulatory milestones. In February, the FDA granted clearance for the CaRi-Plaque technology, facilitating plaque and stenosis quantification. Subsequently, in March, the AMA CPT Panel approved a new Category III CPT code for the CaRi-Heart technology aimed at detecting coronary inflammation and assessing cardiovascular mortality risk.
Book Your Exclusive Demo and Learn More
Attendees at SCCT can seize the opportunity to book an exclusive demonstration of Caristo’s advanced technologies by arranging an onsite meeting at Booth #304 during the conference. This hands-on experience will allow healthcare professionals to engage directly with the innovations that Caristo presents, enriching their understanding of cardiac risk assessment.
Future Development and Workshops
On July 17, an AI/ML interactive workshop will showcase clinical tools for standardized FAI-Score and plaque analysis, led by noted experts. Following that, on July 18, attendees can look forward to engaging debates regarding the relevance of pericoronary fat analysis in cardiac imaging and other technical advances within the field.
