Complete Body Scanning Services In the Dallas/Fort Worth Area

As we age, it becomes more and more necessary for us to make wise decisions regarding our health. This is crucial for ensuring a longer and better quality of life. Taking charge of our health means detecting and treating problems before they have the chance to get worse.

A body scan is one of the best means by which we can detect problems such as cancer and heart disease early on. Over the years, the technology involved in these scans has come a long way, and we utilize this technology in our Plano, Texas body scanning services.

Computed Tomography (CT) scans are considered one of the top five medical developments in the last 40 years. Our GE Revolution EVO CT scanner is an advanced variation of the conventional computed tomography scan, improving upon it in various ways.

At Advanced Body Scan of Texas, we can quickly make a comprehensive detection of disease, which will result in more effective treatment. We can also detect signs of disease before they arise, so that they can be treated before they develop.

How Our GE Revolution EVO CT Scan Works

Our complete body scanning services are effective because we use some of the most cutting edge technologies available in the industry. Our GE Revolution EVO CT scanner scans the body, taking images at extremely high speeds, and can even zoom in on various areas to ensure a more accurate study.

The GE Revolution EVO CT scanner was designed for speed, and can efficiently detect calcium in the coronary arteries.

Body CT Scans

At Advanced Body Scan of Texas, we can detect a wide range of diseases, such as:

• Pancreatic Cancer: The pancreas is an organ located deep within the body, making early detection of pancreatic cancer via a physical examination almost impossible. Our GE Revolution EVO CT scanner can non-invasively detect pancreatic cancer early.
• Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: When this tears or ruptures, fatal internal bleeding can occur. Blood clots are also a major risk, as they can block blood flow to the abdominal organs, kidneys, legs, and even result in stroke or heart attack.
• Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm: This can cause fatal internal bleeding, and force blood away from other organs, causing kidney damage, stroke, heart attack, or death.

Heart Scans

The body scanning services we provide include heart scans, which can detect heart related problems such as:

• Coronary Artery Disease: This is a progressive disease caused by the buildup of cholesterol and plaque within the arteries that supply blood to the heart.
• Heart Attack: This occurs when the heart is deprived of oxygen. In a short time, heart muscle cells can die, resulting in permanent heart damage.

Lung Scan

We can detect various lung related diseases through our complete body scanning services includes:

• Lung Cancer: We can detect tumors resulting from the uncontrolled growth of abnormal lung cells.
• Emphysema: This disease results in the degradation of small air sacs within the lungs, reducing the amount of oxygen that can enter the bloodstream.
• Hiatal Hernia: This is the bulging of the stomach into the chest through the hiatus.

Virtual Colonoscopy

Our complete body scanning services includes virtual colonoscopies. Modern technology has allowed this process to be conducted without utilizing an invasive scope. Our virtual colonoscopies involve minimal preparation and require no anesthesia.

Through the use of our GE Revolution EVO CT scanner, we can get even better results than the optical scope. The procedure is often conducted in under 15 minutes, and there is absolutely no risk of procedural tear or puncture.

At Advanced Body Scan of Texas, our minimally invasive, virtual colonoscopy services can discover:

• Colon Cancer
• Colon Polyps
• Kidney/Gall Stones
