About Heart Check America:
Heart Check America is a privately-held group of medical imaging centers specializing in the field known as preventive imaging. In essence, we’re in the business of trying to save lives through the early diagnosis of disease. We do this by utilizing the highly validated Electron Beam Computed Tomography Scanner to detect and measure heart disease, lung cancer, colon cancer, and other cancers throughout the abdomen and pelvis. The earlier these diseases are detected, the greater the range of treatment options and the greater the likelihood of a successful outcome.
When we say the EBCT Scanner is highly validated, we mean that thousands of articles have been published in the peer-reviewed medical and scientific literature attesting to the accuracy, reliability and predictive value of the EBCT heart scan. In its 2006 Scientific Statement on cardiac CT imaging, the American Heart Association concluded "EBCT has undergone a 20-year period of testing for reliability and validity and is now established as a useful technique in identifying individuals with or at risk for Coronary Heart Disease."
