New partnership delivers critical insights to more cardiovascular care teams to identify and define atherosclerosis earlier
SAN FRANCISCO – September 4, 2024 -- Viz.ai, the leader in AI-powered disease detection and intelligent care coordination, and Cleerly, the company working to create a new standard of care for the diagnosis of heart disease, today announced a partnership to bring Cleerly into the Viz.ai One platform to improve and expedite the coordination of care for patients with heart disease, the leading cause of death worldwide.
Cleerly has pioneered the development of several leading FDA-approved softwares that use coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images with advanced AI algorithms to detect ischemia and stenosis, and identify, quantify, and categorize plaque. The Viz.ai One platform continues to expand its suite of AI-powered capabilities for cardiology, including advanced features such as electrocardiogram (ECG) AI, echocardiogram (echo) AI, chest CT visualization and AI, team activation and HIPAA-compliant communication.
“I am especially excited about the potential of this partnership between Viz.ai and Cleerly to transform the earlier management of patients with heart disease. AI-powered automated detection of heart disease-associated ischemia will streamline diagnosis and facilitate timely specialist referrals, ultimately enhancing access to life-saving treatments and improving patient outcomes,” said Jonathan Aliota, MD, FACC, Interventional Cardiologist at Kelsey-Seybold Clinic.
