### Our Specialized Services
Heart Scan (Coronary Artery Calcium Scan): This non-invasive imaging test uses specialized CT technology to detect calcium deposits in your coronary arteries.

The Heart Scan provides valuable information about your heart health risk, even if you have no symptoms, allowing for early intervention and lifestyle adjustments.
Lung Scan (Lung Cancer Screening or Ventilation/Perfusion): Advanced Body Scan offers sophisticated lung imaging services. Our Lung Scans are crucial for early detection of lung cancer, particularly for high-risk individuals such as long-term smokers. We can also perform V/Q scans to diagnose or rule out pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lungs). These services are vital tools in safeguarding your respiratory health.
Whole Body Scan: Our comprehensive Whole Body Scan provides a detailed analysis of your internal structures. This service can help identify a wide range of conditions, including abnormalities in organs, bone density issues, and potential signs of disease. It's an excellent tool for baseline health assessment or monitoring changes over time.
Virtual Colonoscopy (CT Colonography): As part of our commitment to colorectal cancer prevention, Advanced Body Scan offers Virtual Colonoscopy. This minimally invasive CT scan provides detailed images of the colon and rectum, allowing for effective screening without the need for traditional colonoscopy preparation or sedation.
