OutFront Tonight:Â Dr. Wayne Isom. He's performed heart surgery on Larry King, Regis Philbin, and David Letterman.

The segment on Erin Burnett OutFront last evening (6/20/13), about the death of James Gandolfini, was interesting & informative. The Cardiologist that was featured gave good information, but there is cutting edge new information that could be included. My wife works for Health Diagnostic Laboratory, Inc (www.hdlabinc.com). The company uses advanced blood testing to determine an individual's heart disease risks much more completely than normal blood testing. The scientists there are continuing to work on more advances to assist in reducing the risks & incidence of heart disease & Diabetes. I believe researching a bit about this company, their available blood tests, & the science behind them would be very informative for the viewers of CNN.
