professional will sit down with you and review
your results with you to answer questions you
may have. All tests are reviewed and

when necessary a cardiologist.
Working with your physician or with you
independently, we can help develop a pro-active
plan of care that may include:
- diet
- exercise
- lifestyle modifications
- supplementation
and when necessary
- pharmaceuticals
- surgery

Heart Scan - $495
Research has shown the
ViaScan heart scan to be
the only proven method
to detect early coronary
disease in otherwise
healthy (asymptomatic)
people. 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.
According to the
American Heart
Association, the calcium
score generated by the
ViaScan is "the most
powerful predictor" of
future coronary events
in apparently healthy
people. The Wall
Street Journal listed
the ViaScan EBT heart
scan as one of the "Five
Tests Worth Paying For."

Current risk assessment
methods, like blood
pressure and cholesterol
tests miss as many as
75% of patients who
develop
heart
problems...
YOU SHOULD ALSO CONSIDER
A HEART SCAN IF YOU HAVE
ANY OF THE FOLLOWING
RISK FACTORS:
|
|
|
-
Family history of
heart disease
-
High cholesterol or
triglycerides
-
Low HDL or elevated
LDL
-
Above ideal body weight
-
High blood pressure
-
Diabetes
|
-
Tobacco use (past or
present)
-
Emotional stress or
work-related stress
-
Sedentary lifestyle
-
Other vascular disease

Virtual
Angiogram
-
$1,395
If
plaque
is
detected
in
your
heart
by
the
Heart
Scan
or
Wellness
Body
Scan,
you
can
receive
a
Virtual
Angiogram
to
detect
artery
size
and
degree
of
blockage.
The ViaScan
virtual
angiogram
is
considered
to
be
an
excellent
alternative
to
cardiac
catheterization
in
certain
defined
clinical
situations.
The
20-minute
procedure
depicts
artery
size,
percent
blockage,
number
of
blockages,
blood
flow,
and
does
not
require
a
hospital
stay.
It
is
ideal
for
patients
with
specific
types
of
chest
symptoms
or
a
failed
stress
test
-
especially
when
the
likelihood
for
an
angioplasty
is
low.
In
addition,
it
can
be
used
for
patients
who
have
coronary
stents
or
bypass
grafts
to
verify
that
the
arteries
are
still
open
and
functioning
properly.

Carotid
Arteries
-
$595
The
Carotid
Artery
scan
is
useful
to
evaluate
your
risk
of
stroke
by
evaluating
the
size
of
plaque
in
the
arteries
of
your
neck.
Individuals
with
a
family
history
of
stroke,
high
blood
pressure
or
coronary
disease
are
appropriate
candidates
for
Carotid
Artery
scan.
|
|
Lung
Scan
-
$495
The
Lung
scan
is
useful
for
early
detection
of
lung
cancer,
emphysema,
pneumonia,
bronchitis
or
other
lung
disorders.
In
fact,
the
ViaScan
sees
lung
cancer
at
an
earlier
stage
that
five
year
survival
rate
exceeds
90%.
The
five
year
survival
rate
of
lung
cancer
diagnosed
with
traditional
chest
X-ray
is
approximately
15%.

Virtual Colonoscopy - $995
This test is the much
anticipated alternative
to invasive colonoscopy.
It's just as accurate
and sensitive as the
invasive test at
detecting the polyps
that cause colon cancer
- but does not require
heavy sedation and the
insertion of a five-foot
scope and its associated
risks. Virtual
colonoscopy is fast
(20-30 minutes),
accurate (can visualize
100% of the colon) and
there is no recovery in
a hospital. In
fact, you can resume
normal activities
immediately following
the test. Virtual
colonoscopy is ideal for
persons who have been
reluctant to undergo
traditional procedures.
It can be used as a
repeat exam for those
who have previously had
a normal colonoscopy.
Those who are frail,
elderly or on
anticoagulant medication
can also benefit from
the non-invasive test,
and those without
insurance coverage will
find virtual colonoscopy
costs much less than the
tradition procedure.
