DON'T MISS A BEAT.
Staying in tune is important.
Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death amongst Australian men and women?
Every 12 minutes one person in Australia dies from cardiovascular disease. But increasingly accurate testing and non-invasive interventions can lead to better quality of life and increased life expectancy. Many heart diseases can be prevented, and even after diagnosis, many can be treated and managed effectively.

We employ sub-specialist cardiac radiology, nuclear medicine physicians and work with cardiologists, whose combined experience often collaborate to provide a precise anaylsis of your cardiovascular health.

Some of the cardiac imaging services available at CitiScan Radiology include:
CT Calcium Score
Provides the ability to visualise, measure and report coronary calcification and calculate the calcium score using a non-invasive cardiac CT exam. This test enables clinical reporting for coronary risk assessment.
CT Coronary Angiogram (CTCA)
CTCA is a low risk, low radiation dose, non-invasive examination of the coronary arteries. It can accurately detect and grade stenosis or narrowing within the coronary arteries, as well as being able to demonstrate developmental anomalies of the coronary vessels.
