Dr. Eldredge discusses how standard care of medicine works, and delves into epidemiology. He explains how heart attacks happen, as well as the relationship between preeclampsia and risk of stroke. Dr. Eldredge describes the benefits of having a CIMT test and how it helps to prevent heart attacks and strokes.
“The benefit of imaging technology is that we can tell you ‘Hey, this is the path that you’re on,’ but more importantly, we can change that path, and we can literally prevent the event.” - Todd Eldredge, PhD, MBA, MPH*
