Infraredx, Inc. was founded in 1998 by James Muller, MD on the premise that vulnerable plaque plays a key role in the cause of heart attacks. Infraredx is a privately-funded medical device company dedicated to help provide practitioners with specific information to enhance timely clinical decision-making in the treatment of coronary artery disease. The company has committed over $40 million to clinical research aimed at identifying vulnerable plaque and its role in coronary artery disease, improving the safety and efficacy of coronary stenting, and ultimately serving as part of a strategy to prevent initial coronary events.

Through its TVC Imaging System™, Infraredx is changing the way coronary artery disease is diagnosed and treated. The TVC Imaging System is the only intravascular imaging system that enables true vessel characterization through simultaneous structural and compositional imaging data obtained in a single pullback. Infraredx is headquartered in Burlington, Mass. For more information, visit www.infraredx.com.
