Calcium Scoring

Cardiac Calcium Scoring is a safe and painless test that can detect potential heart problems before they advance. The procedure uses a special CT scan to check for the buildup of calcium on the walls of the coronary arteries of the heart. Coronary artery disease can affect blood flow to the heart and can result in painful angina or a heart attack. To schedule an appointment please call 276.596.6185.

Low Dose CT Lung Screening Special Cash Price

Because prevention and screening are such vital elements of lung health, Clinch Valley Health is offering a Low Dose CT lung screening program for at-risk individuals. To schedule a low-dose CT lung screening, call 276.596.6185. A radiologist will interpret your results and discuss with you at the time of your appointment.  Your results will also be sent to your physician for follow up if needed.

Vascular Screenings

The greatest danger with undetected vascular disease is that the first sign of trouble could be a stroke, heart attack or aneurysm. So Clinch Valley Health is making a special offer to help you find out whether you’re at risk – before a potentially fatal symptom occurs. Clinch Valley Health offers a 30-minute, non-invasive vascular screening using ultrasound technology. This low-cost procedure does not require a physician referral. Results are available the same day as the screening and will be sent to your provider. This quick, non-invasive screening is a smart choice. Call 276.596.6185 to schedule your screening. 

Three tests are performed

  • Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Scan
  • Carotid ultrasound.
  • Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) Ankle Brachial Index (ABI)

Are you at risk?

Take steps to living a longer, healthier life

You may not be aware you have vascular disease due to the lack of symptoms. Early detection and treatment is the key to reduce your risk for serious or even fatal conditions like stroke, heart attack or aneurysm.

Who should be screened?

Anyone over age 55 or anyone over age 40 who has multiple risk factors, including:

  • Family history of heart disease or stroke
  • History of smoking
  • High blood pressure
  • Overweight
  • High stress levels
  • Inactive lifestyle
  • High cholesterol
  • Diabetes

All three tests for $149

If you identify with one or more risk factors, you are also a candidate for a calcium scoring screening. For an additional $74, this test can detect potential heart problems in advance. The results allow your doctor to calculate your risk of heart attack and detect early blockage and plaque build up.
