Dr. Blankstein is a highly accomplished cardiologist, past president of the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography, and has served on the Board of Directors of the American Society of Preventive Cardiology. The SAPPHIRE Study is expected to launch in early 2026 and will assess how Salix can detect coronary artery disease earlier and more effectively. Mass General Brigham joins Piedmont Healthcare and the Huntsville Hospital Heart Center as confirmed participants in the study, which will be a retrospective, multi-center, real-world evaluation of the clinical and prognostic value of Artrya's Salix® Plaque Analysis and its proprietary Plaque Dispersion Score (PDS).
