Why choose the Colon Health Centers of America screening process over stand-alone radiology/imaging centers?
CTC is a test that is also offered at stand-alone radiology and imaging centers. But the vast majority of these centers will have no capability to follow-up with a traditional colonoscopy. Therefore, many patients will be forced to take a second day off work and undergo a second colon prep! Who would want to take that risk? Furthermore, the CTCs done at stand-alone radiology/imaging centers will likely be read by the local staff radiologist. While they may be fine radiologists, they will typically be generalists who read chest x-rays, MRIs, mammograms, ultrasounds, etc. along with CTCs. The radiologists who read CHC America studies are national experts in CTC. In many cases, CTC is all they read–all day, every day. Studies have clearly shown that experience dramatically improves one’s ability to read CTCs. With CHC America, you will only have the best CTC readers in America reading your study.
