Types of Cardiovascular Screenings> View All CT Calcium Scoring A cardiac CT scan for coronary calcium is a non-invasive way of obtaining information about the presence, location and extent of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries—the vessels that supply oxygen-containing blood to the heart muscle. Intended for patients 45 to 70 years old, the test measures your “calcium score” which helps determine and calculate your risk of developing coronary artery disease, such as a heart attack. CT appointments are approximately 60 minutes and the actual scan time is about five minutes. The patient lies on CT Scanner with their arms over their head. No patient preparation is needed for the test. No contrast will be given. No physician referral is required.CT Calcium Scoring is not recommended for patients that have been treated for coronary heart disease or have symptoms associated with heart disease.
