CIMT Testing in Destin

Carotid Intima Media Thickness (CIMT)

Are you at risk for cardiovascular disease? One of the very best ways to determine your actual risk requires looking at the blood vessels themselves. A carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) test in Destin is an American Heart Association (AHA) approved method to determine that risk.

Benefits of Destin CIMT testing include:

• No harmful radiation and it is completely noninvasive
• Far more sensitive than the conventional carotid ultrasound
• Provides the earliest evidence of the origins of atherosclerosis and also has the advantage of being used as a benchmark
