Cardiovascular disease often develops without any symptoms and is undetected until it is far advanced. Heart attack or stroke is often the first manifestation of atherosclerosis in patients who have not had any prior symptoms of the disease. This fact highlights the importance of developing new technologies for early diagnosis in patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease.

Angioscan products identify patients, whose early-stage cardiovascular disease is undetected by the existing diagnostic methods, and direct their physicians to prescribe cardiovascular therapies at the time when such interventions are most effective.
