New heart/brain checkup provided by CVIC
Since its opening in 2009, CVIC Cardiac Imaging Clinic Iidabashi has performed cardiac MRI examinations and cardiac CT examinations for a cumulative total of over 73,000 patients as the first cardiac imaging center in Japan, which is rare in the world. rice field.
The number of cardiac MRI examinations performed is about 10% of the total in Japan, and the number of examinations is one of the top 5 in the world. Cardiac imaging tests at CVIC have been used to discover previously unnoticed serious heart disease and heart disease in the early stages, leading to appropriate treatment and preventive medicine. CVIC's initiatives have attracted attention both domestically and internationally, and are frequently covered by the domestic media.
Based on this rich experience in cardiac imaging diagnosis, I came to feel that in order to further demonstrate the usefulness of cardiac imaging examination, a new examination framework is needed from the conventional cardiovascular imaging examination with CVIC.
This time, we will introduce a new heart/brain checkup menu by combining high-sensitivity blood tests."Blood biomarker test"and individual heart disease risk and physical condition"Personalized(Customized)heart test"will be one of
"Blood biomarker test", we have prepared a comprehensive explanation of the results and specific advice at a later date online or by phone, and a follow-up after 3 months.
Advances in high-sensitivity blood tests have made it possible to further subdivide normal values and predict future risks, instead of conventional normal/abnormal values.
Examinations and examinations are meaningless just by having a medical examination. We believe that the usefulness of the test results can only be demonstrated by using them for daily lifestyle habits and disease prevention in the future."Blood biomarker test"We hope that by setting specific target values and considering measures individually, we can help you maintain your cardiovascular health.

Although it is still a general imaging test to know the current state, CVIC offers a brain checkup that can only be done because we have examined many combinations of brain and blood vessels.
In addition, a new course with the addition of [Cervical Ultrasound] and [AI Image Diagnosis] was newly established this time.

①Heart MRI/Coronary artery MRA
It diagnoses abnormalities in the shape and function of the heart, as well as blockage of the coronary arteries of the heart, without using a contrast agent.
②Brain MRI・Cerebrovascular MRA
The ability to detect minute intracerebral hemorrhages is higher than that of CT, and 3D imaging of the blood vessels in the brain is used to diagnose cerebral aneurysms and blood vessel blockages.
Cervical MRA
Diagnose the clogged blood vessels in the neck, which can cause cerebral infarction.
③ Brain AI (artificial intelligence) diagnosis
Using AI (artificial intelligence) to measure brain atrophy and cerebrovascular health. We analyze risk management for changes in the brain due to aging.
④CALC (coronary artery calcification score)
The total amount of calcium in the coronary arteries is examined by CT without using a contrast medium. Predict the possibility of sudden death in the future
the only indicator.
★Actual scan time is about 10 seconds. Uses a contrast agent that takes about 10 minutesIt is an inspection that does not. The amount of exposure to worry about is 0.4 mSV, which is very low and has a large effect on the human body.No damage. By the way, natural exposure from space for one year is said to be about 3 mSV. If you are worried about radiation exposure, you can do it without a CT scan (however, there is no change in the amount, etc.)
⑤ Body fat (measurement of visceral and subcutaneous fat)
Accurately measure visceral fat with CT, which cannot be determined by metabolic measurements in general medical examinations.
Recently, it has become a hot topic that even thin people have increased visceral fat, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer.
⑥Echocardiography
By applying ultrasound waves to the heart and capturing images of the waves that bounce back, abnormalities in the shape and movement of each part are examined. When combined with MRI, it is possible to diagnose [movement of valve opening and closing, blood flow, backflow of blood], etc.
⑦ Cervical echo
It is a method for sensitively examining arteriosclerosis in neck vessels, and is excellent for early detection of plaque.
Because carotid arteriosclerosis reflects systemic arteriosclerosis, the presence or absence of risk factors for myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction is diagnosed.
⑧ Electrocardiogram
A basic examination is performed to check for heart disease and arrhythmia from the flow of electricity in the heart.
⑨ABI (blood vessel age test)
By comparing blood pressure in hands and feet and examining how pulse waves are transmitted, the degree of arteriosclerosis (aging of blood vessels, etc.) and early vascular disorders can be detected, and blood vessel age can be measured.
⑩CVIC blood test set New
In addition to conventional heart health examinations, highly sensitive cardiovascular markers have been set independently by CVIC based on global evidence.
The risk level is evaluated by subdividing the normal values, the risk is reduced by lifestyle improvement and drug treatment, and the improvement effect is quantified and visualized together with the results of image diagnosis.
⑪Explanation of overall results/Follow-up New
In addition to cardiac image diagnosis, we use the new CVIC blood test set (biomarker set) to explain comprehensive results and catch early signs to support your life without getting sick. In-clinic or online at a later date after all test results are available.

Precautions when visiting for checkup
-
You can make an examination reservation immediately, and the diagnosis result at the time of examinationBecause we specialize in heart examinations, we can quickly make appointments for examinations and provide diagnostic results on the day of the examination. ---In many medical facilities--- The examination department and diagnostic department are separated, and the examination department conducts not only cardiovascular examinations but also examinations of other clinical departments at the same time. Therefore, it takes time to make an appointment for the test and get the diagnosis result.
-
Fast test and diagnostic resultsCVIC specializes in cardiac examinations, so it has a high level of experience and realizes speedy image processing. Cardiac CTInspection reservation within 3 daysInspection time 15 minutesDiagnosis result On the day (30 minutes to 1 hour after completion of examination) cardiac MRIInspection appointment Within 1 to 2 weeksInspection time 40 to 60 minutesDiagnosis result On the day (30 minutes to 1 hour after completion of examination) ---In many medical facilities--- Time required for test/diagnosis results Cardiac CTTest reservation 1 month waitInspection time 15 minutesDiagnosis result 2-3 days cardiac MRIMost medical institutions do not support testingExam reservation 2 to 3 months waiting periodInspection time 1 hour to 1.5 hoursDiagnosis result 1 week
-
Accurate diagnostic resultsAt CVIC, we are cultivating judgment and technical skills through our accumulated experience, and we are able to provide accurate diagnoses promptly.
-
Cardiac MRI examination without contrast agentEmpirically-backed cardiac imaging diagnostic technology captures clear images even in MRI examinations that do not use contrast agents. ---In many medical facilities--- Currently, there are few medical institutions that can take clear images without using contrast agents.
