Heart Disease

Coronary artery disease can affect blood flow to the heart, resulting in painful angina or heart attack. Performed in an outpatient setting, 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. Clark Memorial offers Calcium Scoring at the hospital in Jeffersonville and at the Hunter Station Medical Center. The cost is $50.

If you have questions about your heart health but aren’t quite sure where to begin, start with a heart health assessment and learn more about any risks you may have for heart-related conditions.
