Dr. Charles Mok explains how soft plaque in arteries is riskier than hard plaque because it ruptures more easily. Coronary calcium scans miss soft plaque entirely, but the Cleerly test can identify which soft plaque is high-risk versus low-risk.
The soft plaque. Really soft plaque that's growing is very bad. Soft plaque that's remodeling in a hard plaque is kind of moderate risk. And then hard plaque is actually, you fixed it. It's like, you fixed the problem. And your body can live with that. You can go to your grave with that hard plaque. It's a soft plaque we want to watch.
Yeah. Thank you for defining that. Because a lot of people think hard plaque is the one that's going to cause a problem, and it's not. It's that soft plaque that you're not able to see on the coronary calcium scan that is at highest risk for rupturing. And that that clearly assessment is able to even kind of separate that soft pla to high risk soft plaque versus low risk soft plaque.
