Bunkerhill Health vs Elucid

A physician sends coronary CT angiography images to Elucid, trained analysts segment a 3D model of the arteries, and the software quantifies plaque, including non-calcified plaque and lipid-rich necrotic core. PlaqueIQ has two 510(k)s, the second decided in September 2026. The cleared claim supports clinicians and does not diagnose disease. Elucid bills per analysis with no public rate, and turnaround time is unpublished. A cardiology imaging center with CCTA volume is the customer, helped by CPT 75577, for which Medicare pays about $1,012 at imaging centers. That sum goes to the performing site and is separate from Elucid's fee.

Bunkerhill sells to health systems. Its listed coronary 510(k)s are calcium algorithms, gated and contrast CAC, so a cardiology program that needs plaque composition measured looks to Elucid for it. Its homepage also lists osteoporosis detection from prior CTs, and K243779 covers abdominal aortic quantification. A SOC 2 Type II report is available on request.
