At our Bellaire location, we offer a range of specialized imaging services tailored to address specific health concerns and promote preventive care:
Heart Scan (Coronary Artery Calcium - CAC) Scan: This non-invasive, radiation-free test uses advanced calcium scoring technology to detect calcium deposits in your coronary arteries. The presence and amount of calcium can indicate your risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death worldwide. Knowing your score allows for targeted lifestyle changes or early intervention, potentially saving you from serious cardiac events.
Lung Scan (VQ Scan): A ventilation/perfusion (VQ) scan is a nuclear medicine test that helps diagnose pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lungs) and other lung conditions. This painless procedure involves inhaling a small amount of radioactive gas and a slightly delayed imaging component, providing crucial information about blood flow and air flow in your lungs.
Advanced Body Scan: Our comprehensive body scan utilizes multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) technology to create detailed cross-sectional images of various parts of your body. Depending on the specific needs, this versatile scan can be tailored to assess vascular health, screen for certain cancers, evaluate musculoskeletal conditions, or provide a baseline for future comparisons. It's a powerful tool for early detection and peace of mind.
Virtual Colonoscopy (CT Colonography): This minimally invasive CT-based procedure provides a detailed, three-dimensional view of your colon and rectum without the need for traditional colonoscopy preparation or sedation. It's an effective screening tool for colorectal cancer, allowing doctors to detect polyps or abnormalities with precision.
Choosing preventive imaging is a proactive investment in your health. These non-invasive tests provide valuable data that can guide lifestyle modifications, facilitate early detection of potential issues, and ultimately contribute to a longer, healthier life. At Advanced Body Scan, we believe that accessible, high-quality preventive care should be available to everyone in the Bellaire community.
Our team at 4460 Bissonnet St is committed to answering your questions and guiding you through the process. We understand that making informed decisions about your health is important, and we are here to provide the necessary information to help you choose the right screening options for your individual needs.
