Three Scans That Can Save Your Life

The best way to prevent heart disease, stroke, and aneurysm is to detect them early!

 

Echocardiogram

  • The most accurate, non-invasive heart evaluation

  • Utilizes state of the art ultrasound technology to evaluate your heart’s size, strength of contractions, thickness of heart walls, and valve function.

  • Identifies blood clots, murmurs, fluid around the heart, and coronary heart disease, as well as previous damage to your heart.

Carotid Ultrasound

  • Uses sound waves to evaluate the blood flow through the carotid arteries in your neck.

  • Identifies blockages and plaques, which are the leading cause of stroke.

  • Nearly 4 out of 5 people don’t show symptoms or warning signs, so early diagnosis and treatment of narrowed carotid arteries is essential for decreasing your risk of stroke.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screen

  • Detects the presence of of an aortic aneurysm (bulging) that can lead to a rupture.

  • AAA are mostly cause by plaque build-up. If an AAA is left untreated and ruptures, the death rate is as high as 90 percent.

  • Ultrasound assessment of aorta function is crucial because the majority of people with aortic aneurysms have no symptoms.

Cardiovascular Screening Is Important. Here’s Why

Here’s the really alarming news:

Patients who detect cardiovascular conditions late are much less likely to survive than those who find them early. This is why we need to re-think the way we approach screening. By making the shift to routine, preventative screening, we can prevent cardiovascular conditions from happening before its too late.

9 out of 10 Cardiovascular Doctors Support Preventive Health Screenings

In a 2014 study, 9 out of 10 specialists on the front lines of fighting vascular disease identified preventive screening for cardiovascular disease as a valuable health tool for patients with two-plus risk factors.

AHA Aims to Improve Cardiovascular Health of All Americans by 2020

The American Heart Association is on a mission to improve the heart health of all Americans by 20 percent and reduce deaths from cardiovascular disease and stroke by 20 percent.

We support this goal by offering affordable, convenient, proactive screening geared toward prevention.

The earlier you can catch and manage risk factors for cardiovascular conditions, the better you can control them and the easier it is to prevent the onset, progression, and cardiac related death through preventative treatment.

Early detection can save your life!

 

Neurologists explain why COVID-19 increases a person’s risk of stroke

“…angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) production can help the virus “bind” to certain cells and enter a person’s blood vessels—and ACE2 production rises due to shear stress.

“This finding could explain the increased incidence of strokes seen in COVID-19 infections,” corresponding author Jason D. Hinman, MD, PhD, of the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, said in a statement.

The team also found that, after COVID-19 binds to a person’s endothelial cells, it is possible to differentiate those cells from cells that originate in other parts of the body.

“There’s a unique brain endothelial response to the virus that may be helpful in identifying patients who are have a higher risk for stroke…”
