At INNER IMAGING, we have access to a database of the heart scans of over 80,000 patients! Your results are compared to patients of similar age and gender. Using this information, a Òcalcium scoreÓ is determined and an Òat riskÓ probability assessment is made.
What if the results show the presence of plaque in your coronary arteries?
Depending on your score, in conjunction with other risk factor analyses, the Cardiologist will inform you about the advisability of a doctor-directed program that could range from simple behavior modification, such as a change in diet and appropriate exercise, to medication or further diagnosis. You can also choose to continue treatment with the Cardiologist at INNER IMAGING who, if necessary, can make the full resources of the Continuum Heart Institute available to you in a matter of hours, or this information can be sent to your personal physician for your consultation and next steps with him or her.
