Providing the most advanced and comprehensive cardiovascular care.

Advanced Diagnostic Technologies

HeartFlow^® AI Coronary Plaque Analysis

Understanding the state of your coronary arteries is crucial in assessing your risk for heart disease. Dr. Ghalichi offers HeartFlow^® AI coronary plaque analysis, a revolutionary non-invasive test performed in conjunction with a CT Coronary Angiogram at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Artificial Intelligence Precision: HeartFlow^® uses advanced AI algorithms to create a personalized 3D model of your coronary arteries.
Detailed Plaque Assessment: Identifies the presence, extent, and type of plaque buildup in your arteries.
Customized Treatment Plans: Enables Dr. Ghalichi to develop targeted interventions based on your unique arterial health.

CT Coronary Calcium Score

The CT Coronary Calcium Score is a quick and non-invasive test that measures the amount of calcium in the walls of your coronary arteries.

Low Radiation Exposure: Utilizing the latest imaging technology to minimize radiation while maintaining image quality.
Risk Stratification: Helps determine your risk of coronary artery disease by quantifying calcified plaque.
Preventive Approach: Early detection allows for timely lifestyle modifications and medical interventions.

Carotid Artery Ultrasound

Dr. Ghalichi personally performs carotid artery ultrasounds using the state-of-the-art Philips EPIQ Elite (Netherlands) system equipped with AI tools.

Operator-Dependent Expertise: Benefit from Dr. Ghalichi's specialized skills in conducting and interpreting the ultrasound.
Intima-Media Thickness (IMT) Measurement: Accurate assessment of the thickness of your arterial walls.
Radiation-Free Imaging: Safe and painless procedure with no exposure to radiation.
Trackable Results: Monitor changes in IMT over time to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment strategies.

Comprehensive Lipid Profiling

Advanced Lipid Testing

Understanding your lipid profile is essential in managing cardiovascular risk. We partner with premier laboratories like Boston Heart and Cleveland HeartLab to provide an in-depth analysis of your lipid and lipoprotein levels, which are the particles that cause plaque in the arteries.

ApoB Testing: Measures apolipoprotein B levels to assess the number of LDL particles contributing to plaque formation.
Lipoprotein(a) Evaluation: Identifies elevated levels that may increase the risk of cardiovascular events.
Omega-3 Quantification: Determines the levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which play a role in heart health.
Personalized Interventions: Tailored treatment plans based on your specific lipid abnormalities to slow or reverse plaque development.
