Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA)
Get Screened by a Professional CCTA Technologist
What is a CCTA Scan?
A coronary CCTA scan (Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography) is a non-invasive imaging test. A CT technologist uses X-rays to create detailed pictures of your heart and the blood vessels (coronary arteries) that supply blood to your heart muscle. Doctors use CCTA scans to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD), the most common type of heart disease. CAD is caused by a buildup of plaque in the coronary arteries, which can narrow the arteries and reduce blood flow to the heart.
A Physician Can Prescribe a CCTA scan to:
- Evaluate chest pain
- Diagnose abnormalities of the aorta, the largest artery in the body
- Look for problems with the heart valves
