Screen |

The LIFETEST
EBT Heart/Lung Screen has exceptionally clear images that
can show abnormalities as small as 1 millimeter allowing
early detection of lung cancer, high aortic aneurysms, emphysema,
hiatal hernia and other lung diseases.
This screen not only includes a radiologist reviewing your lungs for any early sign of a disease but also a radiologist reviewing your heart and coronary arteries. |
| Is this the right
one for me? |
Yes...if
you have no symptoms but one or more of these risk factors:
- family history of lung cancer, heart disease, high aortic
aneurysm.
- history of smoking
- exposure to cancer-causing agents (second hand smoke,
asbestos, radon, Agent Orange)
- history of pneumonia, tuberculosis, emphysema
|
| Aortic
Aneurysm |
A deadly killer
and THE Buzz word in today's headlines. Worried?
A LIFETEST EBT Heart and Lung Screen can detect high aortic
aneurysms. Early detection saves lives! Aneurysms
can be successfully treated if found early.(To visualize
the entire aorta, please consider a Full
Body Screen.) |
