This single breath-hold, non-invasive, and fairly inexpensive CT scan can assess the extent of coronary artery calcium. Calcium scoring can help identifyatherosclerosis(fatty buildup in the wall of the heart arteries). This helps to determine your treatment and risk-reduction plan. ...
Using the cardiac PET/CT scan images, our medical imaging experts can accurately diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD), indicating that the arteries carrying blood and oxygen to the heart have become narrowed, hardened, or blocked. Based on our interpretation, physicians may then order an angiopla...
A CT Cardiac Scoring, also referred to as a Calcium Scoring, is a CT scan to evaluate the presence, location and extent of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries. Coronary arteries are the vessels that supply oxygen-containing blood to the heart. ...
A heart attack occurs when the coronary arteries responsible for supplying the heart with blood and oxygen become blocked. This does not happen overnight and is usually the result of fatty or calcium plaques being slowly deposited. At first, these plaques hinder the efficient supply of blood to...
