Bonus Episode: Why a CIMT Ultrasound Is a Must-Have Examination with Joseph Ence
About this episode
Dr. Joel Kahn discusses the importance of CIMT ultrasound with guest Joseph Ence, highlighting its role in assessing vascular health.
What if a quick, painless ultrasound could reveal your true vascular age? In this bonus episode of Heart Doc VIP, host Dr. Joel Kahn sits down with Joseph Ence to discuss CIMT (carotid intima-media thickness)—a simple, non-invasive test used in over 5,000 research studies over the past 20+ years to measure plaque and thickness in the carotid arteries. Safe and radiation-free, this ultrasound provides valuable insight into your cardiovascular health by estimating your "vascular age." They also explore how targeted interventions—like lifestyle changes, supplements, and medications—may help improve—and even reverse—vascular age.
