Our Core Services at 4460 Bissonnet St, Bellaire
At our Bellaire facility, we offer a range of essential preventive imaging services:
Heart Scan (Coronary Artery Calcium - CAC) Scan: This non-invasive, radiation-minimized CT scan measures the amount of calcium buildup in your coronary arteries. Calcium deposits are a strong indicator of atherosclerosis, a condition linked to an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. The CAC score provides valuable information about your heart health risk profile, helping you and your doctor make informed decisions about your cardiovascular wellness.
Lung Scan (Lung Cancer Screening): We offer low-dose CT scans designed specifically for lung cancer screening. This service is particularly recommended for individuals at higher risk, such as long-term smokers or those with a family history of lung cancer. Early detection of lung cancer significantly improves treatment outcomes, and our lung scan provides a detailed, clear image of your lung tissue.
Advanced Body Scan: Our comprehensive body scan utilizes multi-detector CT technology to provide detailed cross-sectional images of various parts of your body. This versatile service can be tailored to assess different organ systems or structures as needed for preventative health evaluations or to investigate specific concerns.
Virtual Colonoscopy (CT Colonography): This innovative, radiation-reduced alternative to traditional optical colonoscopy uses CT technology to create detailed 3D images of your colon and rectum. It's a less invasive option for colorectal cancer screening, allowing for a thorough virtual examination without the need for extensive bowel preparation or sedation, although preparation instructions will be provided.
