Scanning the arteries in your heart for calcium buildup. This calcium is a sign of plaque, which can narrow or block your arteries, increasing your risk of a heart attack.
"The CAC scan is one of the most underused but most powerful tools available for long-term heart health and prevention. It should be a standard screening test, much like colonoscopies, mammograms, or pap smears. We routinely screen for those conditions because they can develop silently over time. Heart disease is no different."

How It Works
The Scan: Measuring Calcified Plaque in Minutes
A coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan is a fast, non-invasive test that detects calcium buildup in the arteries of your heart—an early indicator of atherosclerosis and your future risk of heart disease.
Image Analysis: Understanding Your CAC Score
Once your scan is complete, the images are analyzed to calculate your Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) score—a numerical value that reflects the total amount of calcified plaque in your coronary arteries.
