Recent major breakthroughs in CT technology offer quicker, safer and more detailed 2 and 3 dimensional images without diminishing the emphasis on accuracy. The ability to view a patient’s body with such accurate visualization may even eliminate the need for exploratory surgery. Some of the largest benefits include

  -Most test finish in 15 minutes or less

   -Unprecedented detail & clarity of images

   -Scanning entire body profiling incredibly sharp 3-D images of any organ

   -Limits radiation to the minimum needed for each individual patient

   -Anatomical detail previously not available through CT

   -More confident diagnoses

   -Reduces the need for unnecessary testing

This speed of this new technology also makes the need for beta blockers unnecessary. This means patients who could not take beta blocker due to asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema or other breathing conditions can now have access to important CT testing.

This incredible technology is revolutionizing diagnosis in cardiac, oncology, neurology as well as many other areas of treatment.
