CT Scans a Key Preventative Measure for Heart Disease
Heart Disease on the Rise As the risks for Coronary Heart Disease continue to impact a large portion of the population, recent studies show that the early use of CT Scans can help identify a key risk factor and can therefore aid in preventative care. In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that 75% of […]
US Preventive Services Recommends Low-Dose Lung CT Scans
The US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends that people at high risk for lung cancer should undergo annual screening with low-dose computed tomography (CT) scans. This recommendation is based on evidence that shows screening with low-dose CT scans can reduce deaths from lung cancer in people at high risk. The USPSTF recommends annual screening […]
Study Applies AI to Predict Cancer Recurrence
Visionary Wellness and Imaging was started to provide an opportunity for the early detection of many health conditions that are preventable and treatable in the early stages. Early detection is key to successful treatment and outcomes. We use a variety of technologies to perform these assessments, including CT Scans. CT Scans can provide very detailed […]
Recent Advances in CT Imaging
Advances in CT Imaging (Computed Tomography) are making scans more accurate, smart, sensitive, and innovative than ever. The CT scan continues to be an invaluable tool in preventive scanning and wellness, especially for the early detection of cancer and heart disease. According to an article from Neurologica.com, advances in medicine and a need for minimally […]
CT Imaging Advancements Bring New Level of Detail
Each year, the level of detail accessible in body scans increases, with CT imaging advancements at the forefront. A new study shows how a new technology called “ultra-high-resolution photon-counting detector” is helping to optimize CT imaging, increasing visibility and clarity in extremely minute details. As CT scans use multiple two-dimensional images to recreate a 3D […]
