My brother in law just passed from a massive stroke, he was 39. It wasn't a diet issue or life style problem. He had high blood pressure for years and come to find that the artery to his brain was constricted due to his physiology. It's unclear to me if this test would allow for insights to what my brother in law passed from, but the ability to develop diagnostics that could help determine root cause to catastrophic issues could change the world.

This and the work being done to create "digital doubles" that can inform clinical care is something that will change how we experience and receive medical care.

Sorry for your loss. Based on your description, your brother in law probably had a hemorrhagic stroke meaning the artery ruptured and bled. That type of stroke is the easiest to detect because it shows up clearly on CT imaging. This blood test is for "ischemic" stroke, which is very different and actually has the opposite treatment.
