Computerized tomographic angiography, also called non-invasive CT angiography, is a radiological test that has both the technology of a conventional CT scan accompanied by that of traditional angiography that provides detailed images of the blood vessels in the body.
CTA can determine the status of both the large arteries and veins in most parts of the body, including the brain. The test involves the use of x rays that show numerous sectional images that are then reconstructed by a computer into 3 dimensional pictures.
About Bay Area Heart & Body Scan
HeartScan is a leading service provider of non-invasive preventative and diagnostic services that will help you towards your goal of a healthier life.
HeartScan uses Electron Beam Tomography (EBT or EBCT) technology, a non-invasive diagnostic imaging tool, to screen patients for several leading causes of death. The EBT scanner is an extremely fast, ultra low radiation diagnostic imaging tool that can take cardiac and other images between heartbeats. Special software manipulates these images to give your physician a clear picture of each scanned organ.
EBT is the undisputed gold standard in non-invasive coronary imaging with years of scientific validation in cardiology and radiology literature (many times faster than slower, less-proven, mechanical CT scanners) and is used at many of the major university heart centers worldwide.
