Treating A-Fib
Beating A-Fib: A patient’s journey and how Dr. Ayinde can help take control
Cardiology Associates of Fredericksburg brings Cardiac Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) to Fredericksburg.
What are the advantages of Cardiac PET/CT?
A Cardiac PET/CT exam is a specialized imaging test used to evaluate the blood flow and function of your heart. Cardiac PET/CT provides higher resolution images and is more sensitive than traditional stress testing with SPECT imaging. This means it can detect smaller abnormalities and subtle changes in blood flow, making it potentially more accurate in certain cases. It also allows for more precise quantification of blood flow and metabolic processes, which can be essential for assessing myocardial viability and identifying areas at risk of ischemia. Scans require less time than SPECT imaging and often involve a lower radiation dose, which may be beneficial, especially for patients who need multiple scans or those with radiation sensitivity.
This non-invasive test is the gold standard in cardiac perfusion imaging, and we couldn’t be prouder to offer it.

Announcing the retirement of Dr. Scott J. Seidner
With sadness, we announce that as of January 1, 2018, Dr. Scott Seidner will no longer be a practicing physician at Cardiology Associates of Fredericksburg. After many wonderful years here at CAF, he has decided to retire and return to sunny Florida. Though he will be deeply missed by staff and patients alike, we congratulate him as he embarks on his new journey.
Dr. Seidner’s patients will be transferred into the wonderful hands of one of our other compassionate, competent physicians, here at CAF. You may request an appointment with a specific physician of your choice or see one of our nurse practitioners who will evaluate your individual needs and assist you in selecting a new provider. We recommend that you consider Dr. Arijit Chanda and Dr. Michael Foster, who joined CAF earlier this year. Like Dr. Seidner, they both specialize in interventional cardiology, and are prepared to provide his patient’s with seamless care.
To schedule your next appointment, please call us or contact us via our patient portal.
