About Us

Origin Story

Catalyst started when Joe Riley, while advancing CCTA AI-driven solutions across the U.S., saw the need to expand access to advanced cardiac testing. He met Mike Villa, who brought years of experience in imaging through ownership, buildouts, and managed services. Together, they founded Catalyst to unlock this potential, empowering health systems to deliver world-class cardiac care and prevent heart attacks with the resources available today.

Our mission is to reduce preventable heart attacks by expanding access to advanced cardiac diagnostics, ensuring earlier detection and treatment for all. We envision a world where heart attacks are no longer a leading cause of death, and every health system is equipped to deliver the highest quality care.

Committed to Improving Care

We are committed to being a trusted solution provider, working hand-in-hand with healthcare systems to overcome barriers, streamline processes, and deliver sustainable growth. Together, we strive toward a future where no patient has to suffer from a preventable heart attack.
