The British Heart Foundation estimates approximately 350,000 such studies are performed annually – a number that is only set to rise, fast outpacing the capacity currently available within NHS Trusts.
At Everlight Radiology, we understand this critical need. That's why we are incredibly proud to offer our redeveloped Cardiac CT service, spearheaded by the renowned Consultant Radiologist, Dr. Ben Ariff.
Experience and expertise you can trust
Our new service is built on a foundation of unparalleled expertise. Everlight offers a dedicated panel of Cardiac CT specialists, each accredited to British Society of Cardiovascular Imaging (BSCI) Level 2 or holding equivalent specialist fellowships in Cardiac imaging. This ensures that every CT Coronary Angiogram and Calcium Scoring report benefits from the highest level of accuracy and diagnostic insight.
Leading this distinguished panel is Dr. Ben Ariff, a Consultant Radiologist at Imperial College NHS Trust and an Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer at Imperial College, London. Dr. Ariff brings a unique and comprehensive insight to the field, holding specialist training in not only radiology but also general internal medicine and clinical pharmacology.
As a subspecialist in cardiovascular CT and MR working within a multidisciplinary tertiary environment, his expertise is recognised globally. Dr. Ariff is a Level 3 trainer in both cardiovascular CT and MR and serves as a course director for accredited courses around the world. This leadership is backed by deep technical experience, including hands-on work with most CT and MRI scanners to optimise protocols and sequences, ensuring bespoke, world-class imaging across all vendor platforms.
"I’m excited to lead the expansion of Everlight’s imaging portfolio into advanced cardiac imaging," says Dr. Ben Ariff. "With many years of experience in this field, I look forward to building on Everlight’s strong reputation for excellence and innovation — ensuring we deliver world-class cardiac imaging that supports clinicians and enhances patient care."
