MCG study is presented at ESC Acute Cardiovascular Care 2018

MCG clinical study was presented at ESC Acute Cardiovascular Care 2018 in March 3rd, in Milan, Italy.
This study was conducted in Myanmar, where the locations of the cath-lab are very limited. MCG was compared with CAG, and it showed high sensitivity and specificity for the presence of severe CAD by CAG (≥ 75%).

By Author, it is evaluated as “MCG could be used for prompt detection of severe CAD in order to start appropriate (PCI/Optimal Medical Therapy) treatments in the emerging country such as Myanmar where less medical facilities and skills are available.”

It is challenge for conventional imaging technology to find abnormality of small vessels

The ischemic heart disease caused by stenosis is called "structural ischemia". It can be found by CAG(Coronary Angiogram) in large vessel. However, there are other cause of ischemia called "functional ischemia", which is sometimes hard to detect by imaging examination especially for small vessels. Conventional imaging examinations are not designed to detect such disease. Functional ischemia is the condition where heart muscle is less active mainly due to the supply of oxygen is insufficient by stenosis of large vessel. It is told that the blood flow of the coronary artery is said to be about 20% of the whole heart. Therefore, even if there is no stenosis in the coronary artery itself, there are cases where the cardiac function declines when the peripheral blood, inside of heart wall, inside of inner blood vessel and etc., are in poor condition. (Some of them are called "Micro-vessel disease" or "small vessel diseases") Further,

Premier Heart exhibits MCG in the 59th Annual scientific meeting of Japan Society of Ningen Dock.

The 59th Annual scientific meeting of Japan Society of Ningen Dock will be held in August 30th and 31st in Niigata, Japan. Premier Heart exhibits MCG at the meeting as an exhibitor. Japan society of Ningen Dock is the largest organization for health checkup centers in Japan. More than 4,000 doctors, nurses, and people related to medical entity will gather the meeting and have presentations and discussions about the health check up and preventive medicine. If you have chance to come to Japan, please visit the meeting. We are looking forward to seeing you there.

MCG is introduced as a "State-of-the-art medical equipment" for ischemic heart disease in a famous Japanese magazine. MCG is introduced as a "State-of-the-art medical equipment for ischemic heart disease in a famous Japanese magazine, the Weekly Post. The article introduced various new medical equipments and examinations for the diseases of major cause of death in Japan, and MCG is introduced as only one technology with AI based analysis for cardiac care. In the article, MCG is described as it helps for early detection of heart arteriosclerosis without any invasion. Also in the article, a doctor introduced a case of a patient whose score was "attention" in MCG. The patient took CT after MCG testing, and found coronary arteriosclerosis which is categorized as high risk of Myocardial infarction. The article is here
