Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring A non-invasive CT scan that will show the location and extent of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries. This exam does not require injection of iodinated contrast material. The purpose for a calcium scoring exam is to detect coronary artery disease at an early stage when there are no symptoms and to determine severity. Not all health insurance plans cover this test. CTA Coronary Arteries Computed Tomography Angiography of the Coronary Arteries A coronary CTA is a non-invasive heart-imaging test used to visualize the coronary arteries. With the use of our 64 multislice CT scanner to visualize blood flow in the coronary arteries, and an independent workstation to manipulate the data into three-dimensional images, we are able to extract the most clinically useful information from the study. This helps determine whether either fatty deposits or calcium deposits have built up in the coronary arteries. If left untreated, these areas of build-up, called pla
