I saw mention of "radiology services" but I didn't see any specific mention of a CT scan.
I needed a CT scan recently. It wasn't for reasons of blood flow or anything like that. But the radiologist must have been bored (or perhaps concerned about liability) because he threw in this comment: No abdominal aortic aneurysm with mild circumferential atherosclerotic calcifications
Wow.
I didn't know that CT scans were useful in diagnosing atherosclerosis. There were all sorts of other similar tidbits in the report.
If I were rich enough, I'd want a full body CT done, perhaps every year. It shouldn't be done too often because it's ionizing radiation.
