Heart Attack

A heart attack happens when blood flow to part of the heart is disrupted, causing heart muscle in that area to begin to die. Heart attacks are usually caused by coronary artery disease which makes fatty deposits called plaque build up inside the arteries of the heart.

Prior to a CT screening, patients should consider having a CIMT screening for cardiovascular disease. CIMT stands for Carotid Initma Media Thickness. A CIMT screening can be done in less than 10 minutes, is non invasive and DOES NOT involve the use of RADIATION. CIMT uses ultrasound technology which is perfectly safe to have done on an as needed basis. For more information about CIMT, please visit www.heartsmarteyecare.com
