Cardiac
PET Scan
Cardiac PET scan
is emerging as the gold standard and most reliable non invasive
cardiac test in diagnosing Coronary Heart Disease.
The early
detection of Coronary Heart Disease is vital as the early treatment
of heart disease can prevent heart attacks.
Dr. Adnan Aslam
and Dr. Samuel Ferris at Northwest Houston Heart Center in Tomball
are pleased to announce that their center is one of only three
centers in Houston area equipped with dedicated cardiac PET scanner
for precise diagnosis of Coronary Heart Disease. Clinical studies
have shown that Cardiac PET scan is more accurate than other tests
such as electrocardiogram (ECG) stress testing, single photon
emission computed tomography ( SPECT or traditional nuclear stress
testing ) in diagnosing Coronary Heart Disease. Ask your doctor
about Cardiac PET scan if you are having these tests or suspected to
have Coronary Heart Disease. For consultation with our physicians
