Wells Fargo 21st Annual Healthcare Conference summary
9 Sep, 2026Business overview and market opportunity
Focused on AI-driven diagnosis of coronary artery disease, targeting a $5B symptomatic market with significant growth potential and low current penetration.
Plaque Analysis is the current growth driver, with a $2B TAM, while FFRCT addresses a $3B TAM; both are supported by strong clinical data and reimbursement.
Adjacent $6B TAM in high-risk asymptomatic patients is being targeted through upcoming clinical trials, aiming for market entry before 2030.
Over 625 peer-reviewed publications and a proprietary database of 200M+ annotated CT images support ongoing AI development and clinical credibility.
Commercial adoption is accelerating, with Plaque Analysis revenue expected to grow from $1.5M last year to $30M this year.
Product innovation and clinical strategy
Launched Plaque Analysis staging tool and integrated a PCI Navigator for interventional cardiologists, enhancing pre-procedure planning and efficiency.
PCI Navigator combines lesion-specific FFR and plaque mapping, aiming to become standard of care in cath labs.
DECIDE registry tracks 23,000 patients, providing long-term data on risk stratification and outcomes.
Three randomized controlled trials (RCTs) will address high-risk asymptomatic subpopulations, focusing on decision-making, LDL management, and plaque progression over 18 months.
Clinical evidence strategy mirrors previous successful playbooks, emphasizing decision impact and secondary markers over hard outcomes.
Commercial execution and financial performance
Commercial team of 300+ FTEs covers sales, account management, and customer success, supporting integration and adoption.
Plaque Analysis adoption is rapidly increasing, with covered lives at 78% and expected to rise to mid-80s as Anthem and regional payers come online.
Plaque Analysis ASPs are rising with expanded coverage, with another contractual step-up expected in early 2027.
Q2 revenue exceeded $64M, up 48% YoY, with gross margin expanding by 30 points over five years; company is well-capitalized with $250M on the balance sheet.
