Advanced Body Scan Acquires State-of-the-Art GE Optima CT Scanner

OKLAHOMA CITY - Aug. 3, 2016 - PRLog -- Advanced Body Scan, the primary provider of technologically advanced body scans, recently acquired a new, state-of-the-art GE Optima CT scanner that provides fast and accurate images of the entire human body. The acquisition of the GE Optima CT scan occurred in May 2016.

"This addition further demonstrates our company's commitment to offering Oklahomans affordable access to today's latest technology in the early detection of heart disease and cancer," said Founder of Advanced Body Scan Larry Trucano.

The GE Optima CT scan is a unique type of CT scanner that was designed for speed to detect calcium in the coronary arteries.  The scanner is capable of freezing an image of the beating heart.  The GE Optima CT scanner's computed tomography scan is a variation of the conventional computed tomography X-ray scan.  It is implemented to examine various parts of the body and is considered the best scanning technology to detect coronary calcium as well as early stages of cancer.  Advanced Body Scan's acquisition of the scanner further expands their wheelhouse of services which include full body scans, lung scans, heart scans and non-invasive, virtual colonoscopies.

With the GE Optima CT scanner, patients can expect an accurate, quick procedure. The process is similar to taking an X-ray of the body—only much more comprehensive. An individual lies on the scanner table and multiple images of the organs are taken. Once scanned, a board-certified radiologist reviews the images.  The results can then be taken to any physician of the patients choice.

According to the latest research, Advanced Body Scan's use of the GE Optima CT scan aides in predicting the long term risk of heart attack or of various forms of cancer. The findings hold true across all demographics. Patients in the Oklahoma City metro are currently able to utilize the technology.
