Dr. Timothy Fairbairn, MBChB, FRCP, Ph.D., consultant cardiologist, Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, said: “This technology has exciting benefits for patients, physicians and the NHS. It helps to diagnose coronary heart disease more quickly and more effectively whilst reducing reliance on more invasive procedures. In Liverpool, we have seen how the clinical introduction of the HeartFlow technology is helping improve patient management by reducing waiting times and positively influencing clinical decision making.
“The national support for the HeartFlow technology shows the NHS’ commitment to innovation and implementing new technologies that can help improve the patient experience while delivering the best possible outcomes.”
