64-Slice CT technology revolutionizes heart attack prevention

When I had my heart issues I needed a heart catheterization.  Then open heart surgery.  The after heart surgery, another heart cath!  The heart catheterization was not too bad, but it is invasive.  How abou a new procedure?  Check out the article at -

Here is a part of the article:

CT Angiography vs Cardiac Catheterization:

Until now, Cardiac Catheterization has been the most important tool for evaluating the arteries of the heart. But, Cardiac Catheterization is an invasive procedure that requires an incision in the groin, inserting a catheter into an artery in the leg and advancing the catheter under X-ray guidance to the heart.  Contrast dye is then injected directly into the arteries on the surface of the heart and X-rays are taken that show whether any of the vessels are narrowed.

Cardiac CT Angiography requires only a small IV in vein of the arm. A small amount of dye is injected into the vein followed by a 10 second CT scan of the heart.

With Cardiac CT Angiography there is no risk of vascular damage, heart attack or stroke. 

So, the article it points out NO RISK of vascular damage, heart attack, or stroke!  THAT'S GOOD!

The less invasion into the body the better - hopefully, "zipper" clubs will be a thing of the past also!
