CT Scan of the Heart
CT of the heart is a sophisticated diagnostic procedure that uses X-rays and computer technology to obtain detailed images of your heart. This technique allows doctors to accurately examine the structures of the heart, detect blockages, or other abnormalities that may be life-threatening.
CT of the heart is recommended for individuals with the following risk factors:
- family history of heart disease
- high blood pressure
- elevated cholesterol levels
- diabetes
- smoking
- symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath
