Vascular Age and Arterial Plaque Tracking Made Accessible and Affordable

In the pursuit of proactive heart health, Vasolabs is leading the way with an accessible and cost-effective solution. By utilizing ultrasound imaging, they're providing a visual method to assess arterial health, enhancing understanding and inspiring action.

One of Vasolabs' key innovations is the ability to generate Vasometric reports, including Carotid Plaque and Carotid Intima-Media Thickness (C-IMT), using conventional ultrasound machines.

This revolutionary approach reduces the training required for healthcare professionals and harnesses the power of AI-driven analysis, making accurate artery measurements more accessible than ever.

Joseph Ence, Vasolabs' visionary founder, emphasized the significance of extensive data analysis in determining an individual's "vascular age" and identifying inflammation markers.

"Our focus on arterial plaques, the primary contributors to heart attacks and strokes, is what sets Vasolabs apart. We can visualize and track the liquid-filled pockets within plaques using our proprietary technology, and this helps people mitigate silent health threats that could otherwise pose potential fatal consequences." he said.

Peace of Mind is Priceless

Looking back, it's chilling to realize how close I came to the edge. I opted for a test at Vasolabs on a whim, without any particular symptoms. Boy, am I glad I did! Turns out, my arteries were nearly clogged up - something regular doctors wouldn't have caught unless there were signs of a problem. By the time I got a couple of second opinions and returned to my regular doctor, my arteries were 95% blocked. If I hadn't taken the test when I did, I could have had a stroke. Trust me when I say this, going to Vasolabs was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

I was really worried about getting a heart attack because its already happened in our family. So taking this test gave me the peace of mind I was looking for. And it was so cool to see the age of my artery was younger than I was!!

I went to Vasolabs for their C-IMT testing, thinking it'd be a complicated deal, but nope! It was as easy as getting a photo taken. And guess what? They found an issue that could've been a silent threat. Thanks to them catching it early, my doctor and I are on top of it now. Honestly, I feel like I dodged a bullet. Big thumbs up for Vasolabs!

I saw an ad on Facebook and I got the C-IMT Test for myself and my husband, it was such an easy process. And a great gift idea for family. It was really fun to look at the results and good to know I need to work on my health.

Frequently Asked Question

What is a C-IMT scan?

A C-IMT Scan is a non-invasive procedure that uses ultrasound technology to measure the thickness of your carotid arteries' walls. These arteries, located on each side of your neck, supply blood to your brain. Over time, plaque can build up in these arteries, causing them to thicken. This is often an early sign of atherosclerosis, a disease that can lead to serious conditions such as heart attacks and strokes.

Where do I go to get this scan?

For your quick, 15-minute appointment, simply head over to our facility located at 1414 South 600 West, Bountiful, UT 84010.

Who takes my test?
