In the ADVANCE Registry, patients from the United States, Japan, Europe and Canada underwent a coronary CTA, and when additional information was needed, a HeartFlow Analysis was ordered. The added information contained in the HeartFlow Analysis led physicians to reconsider and change management plans for two-thirds of their patients. Some who were originally scheduled to receive a coronary stent or bypass operation were safely able to avoid the procedure and be treated with medications alone, while others who would have received medications were redirected to stenting or bypass surgery.
“The one-year results from ADVANCE are largely unchanged from the previously-presented 90-day results, which reinforces the durable utility of using coronary CTA as a front-line diagnostic test and incorporating the HeartFlow Analysis in a real-world patient population,” said Campbell Rogers, MD, FACC, chief medical officer, HeartFlow. “By providing functional information, the HeartFlow Analysis is able to complement the anatomical information provided by a coronary CTA and enable the physician to have a more complete picture of the patient’s heart health, and thus provide more personalized care for the patient.”

About the HeartFlow FFRct Analysis
Data from a patient’s non-invasive coronary CTA are securely uploaded from the hospital’s system to HeartFlow’s software application running in the AWS cloud. HeartFlow leverages deep learning and highly trained analysts to create a personalized, digital 3D model of the patient’s coronary arteries. The HeartFlow Analysis then uses powerful computer algorithms to solve millions of complex equations to simulate blood flow and assess the impact of blockages on coronary blood flow. The HeartFlow Analysis is provided via a secure online interface to offer actionable information to enable clinicians to determine the optimal course of treatment.
The HeartFlow Analysis offers the highest diagnostic performance available from a non-invasive test. To date, clinicians around the world have used the HeartFlow Analysis for more than 30,000 patients to aid in the diagnosis of heart disease.
