D.C.’s MedStar Washington Hospital Center is among the first hospitals in the country with new technology to diagnose coronary microvascular dysfunction. It’s more likely to affect women and can lead to a heart attack but is hard to diagnose.
“I was frustrated, honestly, and it got to a point where I just started to question myself, like, 'OK, maybe it's not as bad as I believe it is,'" McCauley said.
“Patients with coronary microvascular dysfunctions are often dismissed by their doctors as it's all in their heads. Now we have the diagnostic tool to actually unmask their condition and give them the right diagnosis,” Hashim said. “With this new technology, we’re able to measure the exact flow and the exact resistance in these small arteries without even looking at them,” Hashim explained.
