Heart Scan: Our advanced heart scan service is a powerful tool for assessing your risk of heart disease. Using cutting-edge technology, we create detailed images of your coronary arteries. This non-invasive procedure can detect calcium buildup, a sign of atherosclerosis, even before symptoms appear. Early detection allows for timely lifestyle changes, medication management, or further investigation, potentially preventing a heart event.
Lung Scan: We offer comprehensive lung imaging services crucial for early detection of lung conditions. This is particularly important for individuals with risk factors such as smoking history or occupational exposure. Our lung scans help evaluate symptoms like persistent cough or shortness of breath, assess lung health for those with chronic conditions, and play a vital role in lung cancer screening protocols.
Body Scan: Our comprehensive body scan provides a detailed overview of your internal structures. This versatile service can be tailored to address specific health concerns or serve as a baseline for future comparisons. It allows our technicians to carefully examine various organs and systems, aiding in the detection of a wide range of conditions from early-stage diseases to structural abnormalities.
Virtual Colonoscopy: For Bellaire residents seeking a less invasive alternative to traditional colonoscopy, our virtual colonoscopy service offers a comfortable option for colorectal cancer screening. Using advanced CT technology, we create detailed 3D images of your colon and rectum. This procedure requires careful preparation but avoids the need for sedation and allows for a quicker recovery time compared to conventional methods.
