|
A high-resolution,
ultrafast CT scanner which scans so rapidly
that it effectively freezes the heart's
motion, and therefore allows radiologists to
examine the small moving coronary arteries,
which are among the most difficult
structures in the body to image. It allows
radiologists to detect early blockages in
the coronary arteries, at a stage when heart
attack can be prevented by lifestyle
modification, or non-surgical treatment |
|
|
|
It is a non-invasive,
painless examination. The actual scanning
time is 5 seconds!! (preparation for the
scan takes about an hour) It is as sensitive
as coronary angiography without any of the
associated discomfort and risk. |
|
|
|
If you have any of the
following, |
|
|
|
|
Family history of heart disease. |
|
Increased risk for heart attacks : eg -
diabetes, overweight, high cholesterol,
smoking and high blood pressure |
|
Chest pain or shortness of breath with
unclear results from other cardiac tests. |
