ROME, N.Y. — Rome Health has expanded its cardiac diagnostic services with two new advanced imaging exams — CT coronary artery calcium scoring and nuclear medicine cardiac amyloidosis imaging — that can detect and diagnose heart disease at earlier stages, offering the community improved access to cardiovascular care, the hospital announced.
CT coronary artery calcium scoring is a non-invasive imaging test that measures the amount of calcium buildup in the coronary arteries, providing insights into a patient’s risk for coronary artery disease and guiding preventative care and treatment strategies. The exam is currently offered on a self-pay basis for $125.
Nuclear medicine cardiac amyloidosis imaging is a specialized diagnostic test that detects amyloid protein deposits in the heart. Cardiac amyloidosis can lead to heart failure if left undiagnosed. With the advanced imaging capability, Rome Health offers early detection and improved management options for patients at risk. The exam is reimbursable by insurance.
