Research

Since the inception of HeartScan Minnesota, our group has been dedicated to following patients after scanning. We have extensively collected conventional risk factor data, stress-testing results, and lifestyle change information on our patients. Information has been presented at multiple national meetings including the American College of Cardiology.

Physicians from the Minneapolis Heart Institute and Abbott Northwestern Hospital are actively engaged in clinical research and teaching. The practice is affiliated with the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation, which has an international reputation for research and community education. EBCT and other cardiac imaging modalities are among the broad spectrum of research projects our physicians collaborate on.
