VPTDF Gains Critical Support From Well-Connected Board Of Directors

VentriPoint Diagnostics, Seattle-based imaging technology company, is dedicated to making heart analysis more convenient and less expensive using knowledge-based techniques. The company’s VentriPoint Medical System (VMS), often referred to as the VentriPoint Angelo System or simply “Angelo’s”, is a unique 2D ultrasound imaging system. Through the use of Knowledge Based Reconstruction (KBR) an accurate 3D image of the heart can be generated from standard 2D ultrasound input. This eliminates all the disadvantages of having to go through an elaborate and expensive MRI scan, such as the often long waiting list, the one hour scan time, the claustrophobic environment, the requirement of a general anesthetic for children, a lengthy heart analysis process, and the need for a second trip to the hospital.

Key to the development of the technology, and to the success of the company itself, has been the support of an impressive board of directors, and the many critical contacts that they represent.
