About this listen

Welcome to Cardiovascular Matters! In this episode, Dr. Craig Walker and Terry Roberts delve into the topic of small vessel disease, an often overlooked condition that affects more women than men but is crucial to understand for both.

Small vessel disease can lead to serious cardiovascular events due to the obstruction of the smallest blood vessels in the heart. Dr. Walker explains:

✔ What small vessel disease is and why it's often missed in traditional screenings.
✔ How the disease manifests differently in women and men.
✔ The importance of the Daisy Questionnaire in identifying at-risk individuals. ✔ Advances in diagnostic procedures, including the role of cardiac PET scans.
✔ Treatment options that can prevent severe outcomes and improve quality of life.
