How We Detect Heart Disease Years Before a Heart Attack: Cleerly AI


Listen Later

Is your heart health a mystery? At Iron DPC, we’re bringing the future of cardiology to you. 🫀✨

Most traditional heart tests only look for "clogs" once they’ve already become a problem. But what if you could see the plaque building up years before a heart attack happens?

In this video, the team at Iron Direct Primary Care is excited to announce our partnership with Cleerly—an FDA-cleared, AI-powered heart imaging analysis that is revolutionizing how we detect, prevent, and treat heart disease.

Cleerly isn’t just another scan; it’s an advanced AI digital care platform that works with a non-invasive Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA). While a standard CT scan gives us a "picture," Cleerly’s AI analyzes that picture to:

  • Identify Plaque Types: It distinguishes between "hard" (calcified) plaque and the much more dangerous "soft" (vulnerable) plaque that often leads to sudden heart attacks.

  • Quantify Disease: It provides an exact measurement of the plaque volume in your actual arteries.

  • Create a 3D Map: It builds a personalized digital map of your heart’s blood vessels to pinpoint exactly where issues are starting.

  • Early Detection: Find heart disease in its earliest stages, often before any symptoms appear.

  • Precision Medicine: No more "one-size-fits-all" treatments. We use your Cleerly data to tailor your medications and lifestyle plan specifically to your biology.

  • Track Your Progress: For the first time, we can perform follow-up scans to see if your plaque is actually shrinking or stabilizing over time.

At Iron DPC, we believe in proactive health, not reactive medicine. Don’t wait for a symptom to be your first sign of heart disease.
