Diagnostic Imaging
Knowing as much as you can as soon as you can serves as a guide to leading an informed and healthier life.
InnerVision is a pioneer and leader offering emerging screening techniques that have been proven to help prevent life-threatening disease. For some, these screenings have the power to find disease at an earlier, more treatable stage. Others receive the peace of mind that comes from being able to rule out imminent danger from heart disease and certain cancers.
A comprehensive screening of the body’s vital organs and structures, the full body screening is the most thorough anatomical imaging test offered at InnerVision. It includes the heart scan, chest/lung scan and an abdominal/pelvic scan. A board-certified radiologist will create a comprehensive report, covering such areas as the heart and coronary arteries, thorax and lungs, liver, pancreas, kidneys, bladder and major abdominal vessels. For women, the test also looks at the ovaries and uterus.
The heart scan with coronary calcium score is the definitive test for coronary disease risk assessment. The heart scan is read and interpreted by a board-certified radiologist who will calculate your calcium score—a measurement of calcified plaque within the heart and coronary arteries. The higher the calcium score, the greater the likelihood of a future coronary “event” such as a heart attack or the need for angioplasty, stents or bypass surgery.
