Coronary Artery Evaluation

Heart disease is the number-one killer of men and women in the United States, and Beaumont now has the capability of detecting heart disease more precisely than ever before.

As the first site in Michigan with a dual source scanner, Beaumont doctors use the high-resolution coronary artery diagnostic evaluation to assess the function of your heart quickly and painlessly. And because it provides images so accurate, to view even the smallest arteries, it could eventually take the place of many invasive heart catheterizations.

Beaumont doctors use these new coronary artery diagnostic evaluations, which take less than one minute, to create detailed images of the heart and chest as well as provide the calcium scoring that less advance testing offers.
