ABOUT THIS VIDEO: Several tests for measuring plaque—the Framingham criteria, stress test, invasive coronary angiography, coronary calcium score, CT angiogram, ankle brachial index (ABI)—have advantages as well as drawbacks. In many cases, the CIMT (carotid IMT scan) proves to be more useful.
Last September 28, 2019, David Meinz held a CIMT Access Tour in LA. This is part 1 of my video presentation for that event. I briefly discussed the above-mentioned plaque tests and recap important concepts behind heart disease and inflammation.

ABOUT DR. BREWER:
Dr. Brewer started as an Emergency Doctor. After seeing too many preventable heart attacks, he went to Johns Hopkins to learn Preventive Medicine. While there, he went on the run the post-graduate training program (residency) in Preventive Medicine. From there, he made a career of practicing and managing preventive medicine and primary care clinics. His later role in this area was Chief Medical Officer for Premise, which has close to 1,000 primary care/prevention clinics. He was also the Chief Medical Officer for MDLIVE, the second largest telemedicine company. More recently, he founded PrevMed, a heart attack and stroke prevention clinic.
At PrevMed, we focus on heart attack, stroke, and cognitive decline. We serve patients who have already experienced an event as well as those who have not developed a diagnosis or event. Dr. Brewer provides services via telemedicine or in person if you're in the Lexington, KY area. We find a lot of undiagnosed prediabetes or insulin resistance. Treating unrecognized risk factors like prediabetes allows reduction of risk and prevention of disease.
