Diagnostics & Assessment

Your arteries tell a story about your cardiovascular health and how well your body is aging. At the Medical Institute of Healthy Aging, we use non-invasive vascular assessments—SphygmoCor, Carotid IMT, and CLEERLY—to measure arterial stiffness, plaque buildup, and overall vascular age. These tools allow us to detect risks early and tailor strategies to support long-term heart and brain health.

What Is Artery Age Testing?

Artery age refers to how “old” or “young” your arteries are in terms of stiffness and plaque accumulation compared to your actual age. Using cutting-edge technologies, we evaluate:

SphygmoCor: Measures central blood pressure and arterial stiffness, a predictor of cardiovascular risk.

Carotid IMT (Intima-Media Thickness): Assesses the thickness of the carotid artery wall to detect early plaque and atherosclerosis.

CLEERLY: An AI-enhanced coronary CT platform that evaluates plaque morphology and identifies signs of coronary artery disease before symptoms arise.

These diagnostics provide a clearer picture of your vascular health and guide proactive, personalized interventions.

Why Artery Age Is a Critical Longevity Indicator

Arteries that age faster than the rest of the body can increase your risk for:

Heart attack or stroke

Hypertension and vascular dementia

Coronary artery disease

Silent atherosclerosis (even in asymptomatic individuals)

Identifying arterial aging early allows for impactful changes in diet, lifestyle, supplementation, and medical therapy—helping prevent progression and support brain, heart, and whole-body health.

How the Test Works

Each assessment is quick, painless, and non-invasive:

SphygmoCor: Uses a wrist sensor or applanation tonometry to measure pulse wave velocity and central pressure.

Carotid IMT: Ultrasound-based and performed in-office or via referral partners.

CLEERLY Coronary CTA: CT imaging processed with AI to provide plaque burden analysis and personalized heart health insights.

You’ll receive a detailed report of your vascular age, comparative benchmarks, and actionable recommendations.
