Smart Heart and Health

What Smart Heart and Health does

Smart Heart and Health Preventive Imaging is a private, physician-led diagnostic imaging center headquartered at 2811 Wilshire Blvd., Santa Monica, California, with a second site in Beverly Hills. The practice is led by CEO and Chief of Radiology Bradley A. Jabour, M.D., an internationally renowned neuroradiologist with three decades of clinical and academic experience, and Director of Nuclear Medicine Edwin Glass, M.D., a board-certified Nuclear Medicine physician with 25+ years of LA-community experience. Services are delivered as a direct-to-consumer preventive-screening practice targeting asymptomatic, health-conscious individuals, supplemented by physician referrals and a concierge team that arranges radiologist consultations.

The core technology is a multi-modality imaging fleet: a 3Tesla Siemens MRI scanner, Siemens and Phillips multi-detector cardiac CT scanners, a GE PET/CT scanner, Hologic 3D Tomosynthesis mammography, Invenia-ABUS automated breast ultrasound, and DEXA bone densitometry. The flagship offering is the trademarked ZeroRad Scan™, a proprietary whole-body MRI protocol developed in-house to screen asymptomatic patients for cancers (pancreas, prostate, kidney, ovaries), brain neurodegenerative disease, spine degenerative joint disease, and metabolic liver disease (NASH, NAFLD) without radiation or contrast. Adjacent services include the Smart Heart Scan (CT coronary angiogram with calcium scoring), Advanced Brain MRI, MRA of the vascular system, CT Virtual Colonoscopy, Low Dose Lung CT, multiparametric Prostate MRI, and DEXA bone densitometry. A women's imaging sub-brand (WIMI) extends the product line into breast screening.

The business model is fee-for-service, with patients paying out of pocket for individual imaging studies or comprehensive preventive screening programs; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Distribution is purely physical (two in-person imaging centers), with patient acquisition driven by the website, direct phone/email contact, physician referrals, and earned media through Dr. Jabour's appearances on Dr. Phil and The Doctors. The practice operates as an affiliate within the Medical Imaging Center of Southern California (MICS) ecosystem, alongside related affiliates in spine (DISC Santa Monica), prostate health, brain health, and women's imaging, suggesting a hub-and-spoke specialty platform.

Products and services

• ZeroRad Scan™ - Whole Body MRI Flagship whole body MRI screening service that images all major organs from head to upper thigh, including brain, soft tissue neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. Designed for asymptomatic patients to detect life-threatening diseases early, including cancer (pancreas, prostate, kidney, ovaries), brain neurodegenerative disease (Alzheimer's), spine degenerative joint disease, and metabolic liver disease (NASH, NAFLD). Noninvasive with no radiation and no contrast required.
• CT Coronary Angiogram/Calcium Score (The Smart Heart Scan) Minimally invasive CT imaging technique to examine coronary arteries, detect atherosclerotic narrowing, and differentiate between life-threatening soft plaque and stable calcified plaque. Includes calcium score measurement. For patients at risk of coronary artery disease.
• Advanced Brain MRI MRI screening program designed to detect the earliest signs of brain degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. Can also be performed with PET-CT imaging. For patients concerned about neurodegenerative disease.
• MRA of Vascular System MR angiography for noninvasive screening of atherosclerotic disease that can lead to stroke. Can detect renal artery stenosis, aneurysms, and atherosclerotic disease in lower extremities. For patients at risk of stroke and vascular disease.
• CT Virtual Colonoscopy Rapid, accurate, noninvasive alternative to conventional colonoscopy. Detects both cancers and small polyps without requiring anesthesia or instrumentation of the colon. For patients seeking colon cancer screening without conventional colonoscopy.
• Low Dose Lung CT Minimal radiation chest CT for early detection and yearly screening of lung cancer in patients at risk, including those with smoking history. For smokers and high-risk lung cancer patients.
• mp Prostate MRI Multiparametric MRI of the prostate that revolutionizes detection and treatment of prostate cancer. Allows radiologists to calculate risks and enables targeted biopsies more accurate and less invasive than conventional 12-needle TRUS biopsies. For prostate cancer risk assessment.
• DEXA Bone Densitometry Noninvasive bone density scan effective for detecting osteopenia/osteoporosis, particularly important for women post-menopause. For bone density assessment and monitoring.
• Women's Imaging Services (WIMI) Comprehensive women's imaging facility (Women's Imaging at Medical Imaging-WIMI) offering Hologic mammography with 3D Tomosynthesis, Breast Ultrasound, and Invenia-ABUS (Automated Breast Ultrasound) for breast cancer screening, particularly in women with dense breast tissue.
• Preventative Imaging Program Comprehensive preventive imaging program utilizing MRI, CT, and PET technologies to detect diseases before symptoms emerge. Includes personalized consultations and one-on-one review with specialist radiologists. For asymptomatic patients seeking comprehensive screening.

Direct peers

• Prenuvo: Prenuvo operates a network of preventive whole-body MRI screening clinics targeting asymptomatic, health-conscious consumers paying out-of-pocket. Its flagship whole-body MRI offering competes head-to-head with Smart Heart and Health's ZeroRad Scan in the consumer preventive imaging category.
• Ezra: Ezra provides full-body MRI-based cancer and disease screening for asymptomatic consumers through a direct-to-consumer concierge model. Like Smart Heart and Health, it markets early-detection imaging to affluent self-pay patients seeking longevity-oriented screening.
• SimonMed Imaging: SimonMed is one of the largest outpatient diagnostic imaging networks in the United States, offering MRI, CT, PET/CT, mammography, and other modalities. While much broader and payor-mixed, it competes in the same advanced imaging services category across California and beyond.
• Center for Diagnostic Imaging (CDI): CDI operates outpatient diagnostic imaging centers across multiple U.S. markets offering MRI, CT, and related imaging services. Comparable in modality mix and outpatient imaging-center operating model to Smart Heart and Health's core services.

Broad incumbents

• RadNet: RadNet is a publicly-traded outpatient diagnostic imaging chain operating hundreds of centers across the U.S., including AI-enabled imaging platforms. It is a broad incumbent in the same diagnostic imaging category rather than a focused preventive-screening competitor.
• Akumin: Akumin operates a large national network of outpatient diagnostic imaging centers offering MRI, CT, PET/CT, and related modalities. Comparable as a multi-site outpatient imaging operator though not focused on asymptomatic preventive screening.
• US Radiology Specialists: US Radiology Specialists is a large national partnership of subspecialized radiology practices and outpatient imaging centers. Comparable in operating modality (CT, MRI, PET) and physician-led structure, though broader in geographic and service scope.

Emerging players

• Scan.com: Scan.com is an emerging digital-first preventive imaging booking platform that offers self-pay MRI, DEXA, and other screening studies to consumers. Comparable in DTC cash-pay preventive imaging go-to-market, though positioned as an aggregator rather than a center operator.

Others

• Medical Imaging Center of Southern California (MICS): MICS is the affiliated diagnostic imaging center that developed the ZeroRad Scan with Smart Heart and Health. Directly comparable in modality mix and physician leadership, but functions as an affiliate network partner rather than a market competitor.
• Smart Brain and Health: Smart Brain and Health is a sister affiliate practice linked from the Smart Heart and Health homepage, focused on brain health and neurological imaging. Comparable in concierge-style positioning and physician-network structure, but covers a narrower organ-system specialty.
