Cardiovascular Wellness
Arterial Imaging Vascular Inflammation Advanced Lipoproteins
Dr. Lyssy’s wellness membership includes advanced cardiovascular testing to identify the root causes of heart attack and stroke. Many focus solely on cholesterol however many other factors are in play including genetics, inflammation, and lipid quality not just quantity. Advanced data can give us the information to create a personalized plan to prevent heart attacks and stroke regardless of history and risk using labs and imaging studies outlined below
Arterial Wall Health
Identify dangerous thickening in the muscular lining of the arteries
Correlate arterial stress and inflammation
Identify plaque location, size, and stability
Gauge your “arterial age”
Coronary Plaque Assessment
Coronary Angiograms with Artificial Intelligence analysis to accurately identify and qualify plaques in the heart arteries
Identify low risk plaques vs high risk plaques
Assess narrowing of coronary arteries to determine need for further interventions before its too late
Vascular Inflammatory Assessment
Measure the amount of dangerous “heat” or inflammation building up in the walls of the artery
Identify the initial step in the development of CVD
Create aggressive plan to lower inflammation to stop plaque progression and prevent plaque rupture causing sudden heart attack and stroke
Endothelial Health
Identify early endothelial dysfunction in the lining of the artery walls, the first step in the development of CVD
Optimize nitric oxide levels which promote healthy vasodilation
Decrease platelet aggregation along the inner lining of arteries
Cholesterol Particle Analysis
Determine the degree of harmfulness of your cholesterol particles
Optimize the particle size by addressing cholesterol packaging in the liver
Identify genetic risk and attack proactively
Determine need for medications with personalized data
Metabolic Flexibility
Determine the body’s metabolic efficiency and flexibility
The most powerful driver of arterial inflammation is lack of metabolic flexibility and insulin resistance
Target the root cause behind vascular inflammation, aging, brain disease, and cancers
