What is Cardiac Testing at Garduño Family Medicine, Plano, TX

It is estimated that about every 40 someone in the U.S. have a heart attack. Heart attacks are the leading and growing cause of death globally, with over a million fatalities each year in the U.S., and often occur without warning to the people who get them. Garduño Family Medicine offers advanced cardiac testing for early detection, timely intervention, and reduced risk of heart attacks or strokes.

Standard cardiovascular risk assessment tools such as a conventional lipid panel often do not identify the long, clinically silent period of atherosclerotic progression. Our advanced cardiac test integrates inflammatory biomarkers into an advanced lipid assessment to further stratify risk at all stages of cardiovascular disease.
