We offer a range of specialized scanning services tailored to identify risk factors and support preventative healthcare strategies specific to individuals living in our community.
Cardiovascular Heart Scan
Our advanced heart scan service is a powerful tool for assessing your risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death worldwide. Using sophisticated imaging technology, this non-invasive procedure provides detailed pictures of your coronary artery calcium (CAC) score. This score is a strong predictor of future heart attack risk. The procedure is quick, typically lasting only a few minutes, and requires no injections or radiation exposure from traditional CT scans. It's an excellent option for individuals with risk factors for heart disease or those seeking preventative screening. The results offer valuable information to discuss with your primary care physician to determine if further cardiac evaluation or lifestyle changes are needed.
Lung Scan (Lung Cancer Screening)
Early detection is key when it comes to treating lung cancer effectively. Our low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) lung scan is specifically designed for high-risk individuals as a preventative screening tool. This service helps identify potential abnormalities in the lungs at an early stage, when treatment is most successful. The procedure involves a minimal amount of radiation compared to standard CT scans and is performed with precision to capture detailed lung images. We recommend discussing your personal risk factors with us to determine if a lung cancer screening is appropriate for you.
Advanced Body Scan
Our comprehensive body scan service offers a unique opportunity to gain a holistic view of your internal health. This multi-system analysis goes beyond focusing on just one organ. While our core services are heart, lung, and virtual colonoscopy scans, the body scan provides a broader assessment. It can help identify calcium deposits associated with heart disease, subtle lung changes, and other anomalies depending on the specific protocols employed. It's a versatile tool for preventative health monitoring, offering a baseline or periodic check-in for overall wellness. This service is particularly valuable for individuals seeking a proactive approach to their health management within the Bellaire community.
Virtual Colonoscopy (CT Colonography)
For colorectal cancer screening, we offer the convenient and effective option of Virtual Colonoscopy using CT colonography. This advanced imaging technique provides detailed, three-dimensional images of the colon and rectum without the need for a traditional invasive colonoscopy. The procedure involves bowel preparation similar to a standard colonoscopy to ensure clear images, followed by lying on a table while images are captured from multiple angles. Virtual Colonoscopy is less invasive and can be a comfortable alternative for screening, although it does not remove polyps found during the examination. It's an important tool for early detection of colorectal cancer or pre-cancerous polyps.
