Heart-Scan

• Heart-Scan is a new technique for rapid non-invasive scanning of the heart to detect heart disease in its earliest stages

• Heart-Scan is a reliable predictor of future heart disease

• Heart-Scan can monitor the extent and progression of existing disease

• Heart-Scan detects heart disease which is often asymptomatic, allowing for early treatment.  Treatment at its earliest stages could possibly reverse, or even stop the progress of the disease.

• The scan takes 5 minutes, and includes a comprehensive consultation with a member of our medical team

• No prior fasting or injection is required

Why Heart-Scan?

• With Heart-Scan, we can now detect and accurately quantify even the smallest amounts of calcium in the heart arteries

• We can confidently diagnose heart disease whenever we find calcium in the heart arteries

• If calcium is detected at the earliest possible time, this could be years before the first symptoms of heart disease present themselves

• Previously the only method to detect calcium in the heart was angiography

• Heart-Scan uses a specially modified, state of the art CT scanner (see examples).
