➀ Non-invasive CT angiography of the heart (CCTA) enables the early detection of heart vessel changes without the use of a heart catheter, important in the care of patients with coronary heart disease and risk for heart attack and death.

➁ CCTA, as a non-invasive imaging method, provides precise insights into the coronary arteries, allowing for early detection of diseases like coronary heart disease.

➂ The method is valuable for patients with a low to moderate probability of coronary heart disease and is risk-free with low radiation exposure.

1. The author anticipates the FDA will soon declare the semaglutide shortage resolved, potentially slowing Hims' revenue growth rate due to compounding restrictions. 2. He foresees explosive revenue growth post-FDA announcement due to 60-day timelines for pharmacies (503A) and 90-day timelines for outsourcing facilities (503B) to comply with the restrictions. 3. The author believes HIMS may leverage FDA compounding exemptions to further extend its compounded GLP-1 offerings, creating uncertainty for speculators betting against the stock. 4. The author rates Hims as a 'Hold' due to limited upside for a long position and too much uncertainty to justify initiating a short position at this time.

➀ Researchers from KIT and DKFZ are developing a new technology that uses compact electron accelerators to directly irradiate tumors within the body.

➁ The project, named UCART, aims to reduce the size of electron accelerators by over 1000 times, making them as small as a millimeter, which can be introduced into the body via an endoscope.

➂ This new approach could potentially make radiation therapy more accessible worldwide and reduce damage to healthy tissue during treatment.
