A crazy idea I had @Caltech in 2018 just won #MedTechInnovator as 2023’s #1 MedTech company with an award of $350k! None of this would have been possible without my co-founder/best friend/brother @AlexBallatori. Cheers to saving time, brain, and lives! @stroke_Dx @MedTechAwards

Most interesting part of this article:
ED physicians ordered the fewest number of CTA scans during the study period at 11%, followed by resident physicians 23% and nonphysician providers 67%.
We’ve known this to be an issue for quite some time…

The government (AKA Medicare) told me today that my effort to save a person’s arm/leg/face and speech from a stroke is worth $1,000. My mechanic told me it would cost $1200 to change two tires, brakes and rotors. Ironic how society thinks my Honda is more important than a person.
