Radiology and Imaging Specialists offers a better way to determine your risk and detect heart disease while there’s still a chance to do something about it. The Coronary Calcium Score isthe only non-invasive testthat can accurately detect—or rule out—the presence of heart disease in otherwise...

Studies have used extensive clinical information to predict time-to-heart failure (HF) in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). We aimed to determine a screening method using only computed tomography calcium scoring (CTCS) to assess HF risk. We analyzed CTCS scans from 1,998 ...

While a big proponent of cardiac CT angiography (CCTA), Leipsic said we still need to follow the guidelines, which includes not using CCTA in the setting of known disease, extremes in calcium scores or in patients with poorly controlled heart rate. VIDEO: Increased Use of Cardiac CT During...
