CT Coronary Angiography


Wijaya International Medical Centre now offers a non-invasive way of assessing your coronary artery status. In this examination using our latest state-of-the-art 64-MSCT CT scanner, we will be able to determine the level of calcium in the coronary arteries and the health of each artery. The procedure involves injection of dye into your vein and taking pictures of the heart at a very fast speed. The whole examination takes less than 10 minutes. This test is indicated in all individuals above 40 especially smokers, diabetics and high cholesterols.
