Cardiac Care: Heart Scans

Many times, people with heart disease have few visible symptoms. Yet heart disease is the number one killer for both men and women in America.

With our new Siemens SOMATOM Sensation CT scanner, we look inside the heart and its arteries for calcium buildup.“Calcium is medically proven to be a clinical marker for coronary artery disease” said Dr. Mark W. Doyscher,
radiologist at District One Hospital. Calcium is the most powerful predictor of heart attacks, sudden death and other manifestations of coronary disease. The scanner is able to detect plaque before stress testing or other types
of noninvasive technology.

The cost of the test is $200 with an additional, similar fee for the radiologist interpretation. To learn more, or to schedule your heart scan, call 507.333.5518.
