Heart Screening (Cardiac Calcium Score) with CT Scan at Radiology Regional

The American Heart Association recommends men and women with the following risk factors consider CT Heart Screenings:

High blood pressure
High cholesterol
High levels of stress
Current or history of smoking
Family history of heart disease or heart attack
Overweight
Diabetes

The CT Heart Screening, also commonly referred to as a Cardiac Calcium Score, uses low-dose computed tomography to take a series of detailed images of your heart. These images help your healthcare provider measure the level of calcium deposits in your coronary arteries. With this, they can gain a better understanding of your risk of heart disease and heart attack. CT Heart Screenings do not require any dyes or injections, and nothing needs to be swallowed.
