Advanced Body Scan of Texas

Preventive Scan in Dallas Area

Advanced Body Scan is celebrating its one year anniversary after opening its doors in January 2019. Since then we have scanned over 5,000 patients and have saved countless lives.

What is Preventive Screening?

Preventive Screening is crucial for early detection and allows you to make informed decisions about your care and can lead to better treatment and a more successful outcome. If you catch it early you can treat it early.

All of our preventive scans are performed on our state-of-the-art GE CT. This scan is quick and non-invasive. The CT scans the body at an extremely high speed and can capture images of the beating heart. With this technology we are able to detect signs of cancer, heart disease, and other health problems.

Advanced Body Scan of Texas offers Heart Scans, Lung Scan, Body Scans (as recommended by physician), and Virtual Colonoscopies to the Dallas/Fort Worth area. These scans will include a doctor’s consultation and are read by our licensed radiologist. Take control of your health today!
