Calcium Scoring Test

CARDIAC CALCIUM SCORING

12 Seconds Could Save Your Life!

Calcium ScoringCardiac Calcium Scoring is a CT scan that detects areas of hardening in the coronary arteries which supply blood to the heart. Cardiac calcium scoring is used to diagnose coronary artery disease in its earliest stage.
