CT Cardiac Calcium Scoring a Hidden Gem of Preventive Care

Last year, if you would have told Theresa she should consider getting a CT Cardiac Calcium Score screening (a test to measure plaque buildup in the arteries), she would have chuckled at the thought. Heart disease was the last thing on Theresa’s mind when it came to her health. In her sixties, she felt fine, but as she heard more testimonials from Wapakoneta residents about the screening, she began to wonder about her true health status.
After hearing about the test from many people in her area, it was a television segment about CT Cardiac Calcium Scoring, featuring Dr. Mehran Arabpour, that convinced her to call and schedule a screening. Her results revealed a high score of 1530, and a follow-up heart catheterization revealed two of her arteries 90% and 50% blocked.
“I thought I was perfectly fine and healthy,” shares Theresa. “The CT Cardiac Calcium Score screening is a hidden gem when it comes to preventive care. It only takes a few minutes, and it will be the best investment you will make in your health.”
Since her screening and diagnosis, Theresa is on the path to treatment and has referred family, friends and neighbors to get their test completed for preventive measure.
“Out of the 20 people I have referred, three need or have already had bypass surgery,” expresses Theresa. “I tell everyone about this service.”
